I mean, it’s not a holiday or anything, but today is when North Carolina early voting sites open, including one on Durham Tech’s Main Campus (in the Newton building, room 4-141, accessed from the back parking lot–near the construction classrooms) for Durham County voters.
I voted! This is my first time being a Durham County voter and working on the Main Campus while we have early voting available (I’m normally in Hillsborough). 
The back parking lot of the Newton Building (Lot H) is where you’ll find the early voting entrance.
Early voting begins Thursday, Oct. 15 and ends on Saturday, Oct. 31. I voted today at he Newton Building and it took me about an hour to vote– while it wasn’t ridiculously busy like some of the news from other states, the poll workers made sure we kept appropriately distanced, got our own pen (to keep!), and were spaced out in the voting site. Everyone was wearing a mask and it felt very safe and organized.
During early voting, you can update your registration or register to vote, drop off your absentee ballot at an early voting location, or cast your ballot!
