Voters can cast early ballots starting Monday morning across metro Atlanta.

The offices up for grabs are largely municipal -- mayor and city council seats -- but residents in unincorporated areas of DeKalb will vote on a referendum to restructure the ethics board while Fulton voters will choose a new county commissioner.

For more information on where to early vote, and which offices are being decided upon, consult the article below written for your home county. Learn more about Georgia's new voting system in the video.
