Fulton County election director Rick Barron hopes 72 percent of voters will choose to come to the polls early – twice as many as did in 2012.

“On Election Day, you have no flexibility,” he said. “I see no advantages to Election Day voting vs. early voting.”

Primary Election Day is Tuesday, March 1. A total of 144 polls will be open in Cobb County from 7 a.m. to 7 p.m. that day, according to the county. For information on your registration status and to find early-voting locations in your county, visit the Secretary of State’s voter web page at sos.ga.gov or by contact your local election office.
