You can vote now, Georgia
Posted at: Wednesday, February 25, 2004, 03:12 AM
Early voting has started. If you’d like to cast a ballot now instead of waiting until Tuesday’s primary, you can do so at your county voter registration office today through Friday during regular business hours.
If you miss the early voting deadline, you can vote absentee through Monday, provided you meet the requirements that you will be absent from your precinct all day on Election Day, you are 75 or older or disabled, or you meet other requirements.
(You can find the address and phone number of your county registration office on the Web at www.sos.state.ga.us/elections/info/2000_voter_info.asp.)
You can select whichever ballot you prefer — Democratic, Republican or independent — regardless of your party affiliation. The Democratic ballot allows you to vote on that party’s presidential candidates. On the Republican ballot, you can vote for President Bush, who has no opponent. All voters, including those selecting an independent ballot, will be able to make a nonbinding advisory vote on a state flag design — either the current one or the “blue” flag adopted during former Gov. Roy Barnes’ administration.
For those voting Tuesday, polling hours are 7 a.m. to 7 p.m.
