We're getting reports from readers across Georgia's 6th District who are wondering whether they can cast a ballot in the nationally-watched special election to represent the suburban Atlanta district.

The district spans from east Cobb to north DeKalb, and only residents within its boundaries can vote in the 18-candidate field. If not, you will be turned away from the polling sites.

One reader sent word that's she showed up at her Sandy Springs polling site "only to find a bunch of ticked off people who just learned they're not in the 6th." Another said he was sure he was a resident - until he checked his address on the state registry.
