Two East Cobb precinct changes made for Tuesday’s elections

A couple of notes as we wrap up our preview material for Tuesday’s voting:

There have been two East Cobb precinct changes to keep in mind.East Cobb precinct changes, Catholic Church of St. Ann

The Bells Ferry 3 precinct that had been located at Noonday Baptist Church on Canton Road has moved right across the road, to the church’s East campus, located at 4120 Canton Road.

The Timber Ridge polling station has moved away from Timber Ridge Elementary School and is now at the Catholic Church of St. Ann, seen at right (4905 Roswell Road), for what Cobb Elections said were due to security concerns at the school.

Classes are not in session on Tuesday because of the elections. It will be a staff learning day instead.

If you’re not sure where your precinct is located, you can check at the Georgia Secretary of State website here.

All precincts will be open from 7 a.m. to 7 p.m. Tuesday. There is no early voting on Monday.

Cobb Elections also has issued sample ballots to see what names and ballot issues will be awaiting you when you head to the polls. Here’s the consolidated ballot for all voters in the county, and here’s a link to get the names you’ll be seeing on your personalized ballot.

As we noted yesterday, early voting that ended Friday was up dramatically from the 2014 midterms, with nearly 112,000 ballots already cast in Cobb in person. Nearly 23,000 more voters have cast absentee ballots.

In addition to a close Georgia governor’s race, local voters will have full slates on most of their ballots. That includes East Cobb, where 10 races are being contested, including 6th District Congress, District 3 of the Cobb Board of Commissioners, two Cobb school board seats, a State Senate seat and five State House seats.

Please visit our East Cobb Elections Guide link below for full previews of those races and other voting information.
