Ahead of next week's general election, voters are lining up for the third day of early voting across Oklahoma.

On Friday the polling stations will be open from 8 a.m. to 6 p.m. and on Saturday from 8 a.m. to 2 p.m. for the last time

Nearly a quarter of a million people across the state have already cast their ballots, and that number is expected to grow.

This year, every seat in the U.S. House of Representatives is up for election, including four of Oklahoma's five seats. Fifth place goes to MP Frank Lucas, who is running unopposed.

News 9 spoke with voters who stood in line for hours just to exercise their right.

“I think it's really important for people my age to understand how important voting is in general,” voter Mackenzie Guzman said. “There is no better way to show this than early voting.”

In Oklahoma County, voters can cast their ballot at two locations. The first is at the Oklahoma County Election Board at 4201 Lincoln Boulevard in Oklahoma City and the second is at the Multi-Activity Center in 2733 Marilyn Williams Drive in Edmond.
