The Monday after Thanksgiving might be the official “Leftover Turkey Sandwich at Your Desk” holiday, but something else is going on this year.
Early voting for runoff races in three cities of Fulton County begins Nov. 25 ahead of the Dec. 3 election day.
Residents in College Park — population 15,000 — will decide their mayor. The options are longtime mayor 66-year-old Jack Longino and 42-year-old Bianca Motley Broom. The race has been whittled down from a six-person contest.

None of the three Johns Creek races were figured out earlier in November. Posts 2, 4 and 6 remain up in the air; only one includes an incumbent.
Roswell residents have yet to settle its Post 3 race. The open seat was created when Councilman Sean Groer, tired of the city's toxic politics, resigned in August and left town.
The two vying for that seat are businesswoman Christine Hall and retired city police spokeswoman Lisa Holland.
