Tuesday marks the first day of early voting for mayoral and city council races in Atlanta and around Fulton County.
What you need to know:
- Early voting continues through Oct. 29 — from 9am to 6pm.
- Fulton County will open 24 early voting sites. (Full list here.)
- View the county's sample ballot here.
If you prefer to vote by mail, the last day to request an absentee ballot is Oct. 22.
- Reminder: A new law that went into effect this year requires anyone requesting an absentee ballot to include their driver’s license number or another form of identification on the form.
- You can deposit your absentee ballot in one of several drop boxes, by mail or at the elections office.
Our thought bubble: We’ll be voting early to avoid long lines on Election Day!
