News Atlanta voter registration ends today
Posted by Thomas Wheatley @thomaswheatley on Mon, Oct 5, 2009 at 4:14 PM
Take note, ballot casters! Today's the last day to register if you want to vote for Atlanta's next mayor and councilmembers on Nov. 3.
We ran through a list of links and how-to's last week, so you can jump back to that post for info. But here they are again if you want to save a click.
Check to see if you're already registered to vote. If not, here's how you can get registered. Look here to see how you can vote via absentee ballot. To view Early and Advance Voting dates and locations, check out our previous post. This FAQ can answer a lot of questions about the upcoming municipal elections. Your county elections office can answer more specific questions or help you out with specific problems. The Georgia Secretary of State's office has a convenient one-stop resource to handle general registration and election concerns.
Many municipal races will end up in a runoff, which traditionally have low voter turnout. That means your vote could make or break your favored candidates' hopes for actually winning office. Now go forth and get registered!
