WARREN Some voters in Girard and Liberty are having their polling locations changed for the May 4 primary, with the Liberty move permanent.
The relocation of some voters in Girard is just for the primary election as portions of the community is in the Liberty school district. The school district has a tax levy on the primary ballot.
The move is to save money because with a small number of voters in those precincts, it’s less expensive to have them in other polling locations that already are going to be open for the primary, Stephanie Penrose, director of the Trumbull County Board of Elections, said.

WARREN The Trumbull County Board of Elections will accept letters of interest until Feb. 1 from those interested in being considered for the open deputy director’s position.
The job is available after the Dec. 31 retirement of Ron Massullo, a Democrat. The person replacing Massullo has to be a Democrat under state election law as the director, Stephanie Penrose, is a Republican and the two positions must be held by people from the other political party.
Chairman Mark Alberini, a Democrat, at Monday’s board meeting complimented Massullo as having “an unmatched skill set when it comes to election expertise.”
