The polling place for voters in Sussex County Election District 36-01 has been moved to Mispillion Elementary School after a fire damaged Lulu Ross Elementary School. The fire happened over the weekend, and the Department of Elections Sussex County Office has already mailed letters to all registered voters in the district to inform them of the change.
