More Than 110,000 Vote Early in Fulton

Thousands of Fulton County residents are taking advantage of the dozens of sites open for early voting.

As of Wednesday, 118,123 residents have cast ballots ahead of the Nov. 8 general election, the Fulton County Department of Registration and Election said.

More than 23,000 absentee ballot applications have also been processed by the county.

“So far, we have surpassed the number of early voters compared to the same period during early voting in the 2012 general election,” said Richard L. Barron, director of the Department of Registration and Elections. “We are extremely pleased with the turnout and hope that many ore will take advantage of the remaining 10 days of early voting. The outreach locations at colleges and senior centers have seen a good turnout for the days they are open.”

Fulton County has rolled out 24 early voting locations as well as 12 outreach locations to give residents more opportunities to vote.

“We even posted a webpage that provides the locations, directions and a wait time based on the number of people in line,” Barron added.
