Early voting locations for Atlanta elections are open

Atlanta residents who want to vote early for school board or city races can do so on weekdays until Nov. 1 or on Saturday during a “Family Voting Day” event.

Saturday voting — featuring activities to teach children about the election process — is available at Adamsville Recreational Center, Coan Recreation Center and Peachtree Hills Recreation Center.

Additional early voting locations are open during weekdays, and registered voters may cast their ballots at any of the voting locations no matter where they live in the city.
