Registered voters in the village of Bluffton will vote at The Centre, 601 N. Main St., during the May 4 Ohio primary election.

Voters were notified this week that the polling location will move from the Bluffton elementary school, where it was located for several decades, to The Centre.

According to Kathy Meyer, director of the Allen County board of elections, voters must receive a notification of a polling location move 90 days prior to an election, thus the yellow post card sent through the U.S. Postal Service announcing the location change.
