Cobb Elections said it mailed incorrect location information to voters in two precincts, including one in East Cobb.
A county mailer that went out to voters in the Roswell 02 and Acworth 1C precincts had the wrong locations for those two precincts.
In Roswell 02 (see map below), the correct precinct is Mt. Zion United Methodist Church (1770 Johnson Ferry Road).
Mt. Zion has been the precinct location for Roswell 02 for a number of years but was unavailable for the June 2022 runoffs due to scheduling conflicts, according to Cobb Elections precinct information.
The polling station was temporarily relocated across the street, to the Episcopal Church of St. Peter and St. Paul, but was moved back to Mt. Zion for the 2024 elections.
“We regret this error and are working to distribute the correct information via social media, our website, and the media,” Cobb Elections Director Tate Fall said in a county statement.
“Additionally, poll workers at the incorrectly listed locations will be ready to direct voters to the correct locations on Nov. 5. We encourage all voters to double-check their My Voter Page (mvp.sos.ga.gov) before heading out to vote on Election Day.”
The county said the mailers were “not part of a state mandate but an educational initiative approved earlier this year in a contingency package for the general election. They were a component of the county’s Strategic Plan to ‘enhance voter education to inform citizens about early voting, referenda, sample ballots, and registration.’ ”
