If you live in Woodward, Seminole, or Oklahoma counties, there are several issues on ballots this week that seek to make changes in your community.

In Oklahoma County, voters will decide if Del City will enter into a 25-year agreement with Oklahoma Gas and Electric.

In Seminole County, first responder groups are seeking funding by increasing the sales tax. The funds will support operations, equipment and training.

The Seminole County Fire Department asks for 40% of a 1/4 cent, and the Ambulance and 911 Services are asking for 30% of a 1/4 cent.

And in Woodward County, Sharon-Mutual Schools is asking voters to support a $700,000 bond for transportation equipment.

Go to your county elections website for polling information.

The deadline to mail in your absentee ballot is 5 p.m. on Tuesday.

We will have the results of all these elections on the News 9 app.
