Cold, Not Road Conditions, Will Be The Driving Factor For Caucus Turnout In Carroll County

Snowy-Tire

Carroll County caucus-goers should not have too much trouble getting to caucus sites tonight (Monday), assuming their engines turn over in the frigidly cold temperatures. According to Carroll County Engineer Zac Andersen, all the county’s paved roads have been cleared. As for the gravel roads, he says they will all have had at least one pass by a plow or grader by the time people leave for their caucus site. Andersen urges rural drivers to use caution on gravel, as the travelable portion of some roads will be very narrow, but he says everybody wanting to participate will have a passable route to get there. Be sure to pack coats, hats, and gloves in the vehicle for the trip, as wind chill values are forecasted to drop as low as -35 degrees Fahrenheit with actual temps of -11 degrees. The caucuses begin at 7 p.m. tonight (Monday), and a list of the Carroll County sites and accompanying precincts is included below.
