Most everyone understands the election is rapidly approaching. Make sure you’re aware of all the important dates coming up.

October 12 through 30

Early voting began on October 12 but will continue until October 30.

October 24 (9 a.m.– 4 p.m.)

Saturday early voting is held for one Saturday. For Bulloch county voters, you can go to The Board of Elections and Registration Office, 113 North Main St., Suite 201 in the County Annex from nine in the morning to four in the afternoon.

October 30

This is the final day of early voting but be aware because the final day of early voting is notorious for having long lines so try to go sooner if possible.

This is also the last day to request an absentee ballot, also be aware that doing this last minute might not be the best idea because the mail can sometimes run into issues.

November 3

This is heavily anticipated Election Day, and if you plan to vote on this day please check mvp.sos.ga.gov which is where you can find your assigned precinct. After you know where you are supposed to go, schedule out your election day and make sure you make it to vote.
