Here are some reminders for the runoff elections:
If you are a registered voter you can vote in the runoff even if you have not voted in this election cycle.
However, if you took a Democratic ballot or a Republican ballot you can’t not vote in the opposite party’s runoff election.
Early voting for the runoff election should start no later than June 10 but some counties may start sooner.
As with any Georgia election, you can vote early, in person on the 18 or cast an absentee ballot. June 7 is the last day to request an absentee ballot.
If you voted absentee in the regular election and checked the boxes for elderly, disabled, or voting from overseas, you should automatically receive a runoff ballot.
You can see what races you will vote on through the Secretary of State’s My Voter Page. You should also check with your local board of elections for when and where you can vote in person.
