Crowds Taking Advantage of Early Voting

Georgia voters set a new record last week with the number of voters casting ballots on the first day of early voting.

In Harris County, voter participation has been incredibly high with election officials reporting that on some days voters were waiting in line before the election office polling location opened.

Early voting continues daily 8 am to 5 pm including Saturday, Oct. 24, ending at 5 pm Friday, Oct. 30. Any voter in line by 5 pm on any of the early voting days will be allowed to cast their ballot. All early voting is held at the Harris County Elections Office, 757 Carver Circle, Hamilton.

The General Election date is Tuesday, Nov. 3, with voting conducted in the individual precincts.

There are three constitutional amendments on the ballot and sample ballots are available at mvp.sos.ga.gov Enter first initial, last name, county of residence and birthday.

Any questions regarding the voting or election process can be fielded at the elections office or call 706-628-5210.
