Bibb bungles ballots in District 6 and 9 as voters given wrong ones by mistake, working on a fix

Before you go to cast your vote, be sure to know what District you're in and double check the names of those on the ballot.

MACON, Ga. — Some Bibb voters in District 6 are getting District 9 ballots by mistake, according to the Bibb County Board of Elections. 

Thomas Gillon with the Board of Elections says they are trying to fix the issue "as fast as we can."

He says when you get your ballot, make sure you review it carefully. If any names seem out of place or unfamiliar, call a worker over to look over it and it will be corrected.

If you're voting in District 6, the names on your ballot should be George Thomas and Raymond Wilder.

The District 9 names are Brendalyn Bailey, Greg Turner, Thomas Hudson, and Renoalda Scott. So if you see any of those names on your ballot voting for District 6, you need to call a worker to replace it. 

However, if you've already cast your vote  with the wrong district number, it cannot be corrected. 

Before you head to the polls make sure you know what district you are in and who's on the ballot. 

You can check all your information on the Georgia My Voter Page. 

Gillon says to also double or triple check your ballot before submitting it, to be sure there aren't any issues before you send it off.
