Voting During the Pandemic
Although the COVID-19 crisis has postponed our elections, you can still apply for an absentee ballot. Applications for an absentee ballot were sent in the mail. You are also able to apply for one online at the Georgia My Voter Page.
Another benefit of this Georgia My Voter page is the option to view a sample ballot for the upcoming election. This is also a place where you can register to vote.
Even though this pandemic has postponed our election, it will still happen! If you do wish to vote at the poll office, here are a few important days to do so:
May 11 - Last Day to Register
May 18 - First Day of Early Voting
May 30 - Saturday Vote
June 5 - Last Day to Early Vote
June 9 - Election Day

2020 Census
COVID-19 has prevented the 2020 Census field activities to be postponed until June 1, 2020. However, they are still getting the word out through online sources.
The 2020 Census is a way for you to help your community. The results of the 2020 Census help determine how much federal funding each state and its communities get each year. The results also determine how many seats each State gets in Congress.
You can fill out the 2020 Census online, by phone, or by mail. To know how to fill out the Census in each of these ways, click here.
