HOW TO VOTE ON ELECTION DAY

Get Prepared

  • Have a valid photo identification (ID). Georgia residents must show a valid photo ID when voting in person. Acceptable forms of voter identification include a driver’s license or a U.S. passport. The State of Georgia also offers a free voter ID card, which can be issued at any County Board of Registrar's Office and can be used to vote.

  • Request voter assistance if you need it. If you require special assistance to vote or to access your polling place, contact your County Board of Registrar's Office for help.

Go to your polling place

On Election Day, you must vote at your designated polling place. You can find your assigned polling location on your voter registration card, by logging into the Secretary of State’s My Voter Page, or by contacting your County Board of Registrar's Office

**Gwinnett voters have a municipal race, and will need to go to https://www.peachvote.com/location-lookup to find their city voting location.

Polling places are open on Election Day from 7:00 a.m. to 7:00 p.m. If you are in line by 7:00 p.m., you are allowed to cast your ballot.
