Statewide Early Voting This
Saturday
Mark your calendar for this
upcoming Saturday, October the
27th. Each county
will have polling locations that
will be open at a minimum from
9:00 AM – 4:00 PM. Voters may
find their advanced voting poll
location by visiting the “My
Voter Page” at
mvp.sos.state.ga.us.
Voters may also access a copy of
their Sample Ballot to assist
them with their candidate
research prior to arriving at
the polls. If an individual has
requested an absentee ballot,
the date of receipt and issue of
the ballot can be found on the
MVP page as well.
“I’d like to continue
encouraging Georgians across the
state to take advantage of early
voting. If you’ve been unable to
vote early during the week due
to work or personal reasons,
please take advantage of this
additional resource,” said
Georgia Secretary of State Brian
Kemp.
