ORIGINAL STORY, OCT. 17
As it has done previously, Cobb Elections and the county government’s GIS office are teaming up up to provide an estimated wait-time map for early voting during the 2022 general elections.
Early voting began on Monday and continues through Nov. 4 (see our early voting guide for more how-tos and a list of local candidates).
The wait-time interactive map is periodically updated each day by the poll manager at each location.
The link can be found here.
If you click the information icon in the upper-right corner you’ll find a color-coded legend explaining the wait times and other information.
Voting activity has been busy at several locations Monday morning, including the East Cobb Government Service Center (4400 Lower Roswell Road), where the wait times were estimated to be around 30 minutes.
That’s one of two locations in East Cobb that will be open for all three weeks of early voting, including the next two Saturdays, Oct. 22 and 29.
The East Cobb Government Service Center also has a drop box for absentee ballots that is available during early voting hours only.
Cobb Elections officials have begun mailing out absentee ballots. The deadline to apply to receive one is Friday, and you can apply online by clicking here.
Gabriel Sterling, the chief operations officer for the Georgia Secretary of State’s Office, said this morning that Cobb voters have requested more absentee ballots thus far (23,136) than any other county, and that 216,754 applications for absentee ballots have been submitted statewide.
