It's a simple yes or no vote that's sure getting voters to the polls in Kanawha County. We're talking about the table games issue.

On Friday, nearly 530 voters took part in the first day of early voting. Election officials say this is unusual to see so many voters out early. Normally when an election deals with just one issue, officials say it's much slower.

As of late Monday afternoon, more than 5-hundred voted. 15-to-20 percent of registered voters in Kanawha County are expected to vote on the issue.
