JOHNS CREEK, GA -- On Monday, May 2, the Fulton County Department of Registration and Elections will open 24 early voting locations for registered voters to cast their ballots for the 2016 general primary and special election.

Early voting will run Monday through Friday, May 2 through May 20. Additionally, Saturday voting will take place May 7 and 14 and Sunday, May 8 and 15.

“I cannot stress enough how important it is for residents to know the address of their polling place prior to heading to the poll,” said Richard Barron, director of Registration and Elections. “One of the most asked question we receive on Election Day is ‘where do I go to vote?’. That information, as well as directions, is posted on our website at www.fultonelections.com."

Barron said he encourages Fulton residents to take advantage of early voting opportunities to avoid the long lines on Election Day, Tuesday, May 24.

“Also, remember that during Early Voting, they can vote at any of the 24 poll locations but on Election Day, they have to vote at their designated polling precinct," he said.

A complete listing of qualified candidates for the primary and special election can be found here.

Early voting dates times:

• 8:30 a.m. to 5 p.m. May 2-13
• 7 am. to 7 p.m. May 16-20
