With a surreal and unprecedented presidential campaign underway, counties around Georgia are preparing for a strong turnout on Election Day.

In DeKalb, voters have many other matters to attend to as well, such as whether to create a new city or whether to give tax breaks to homeowners.

Why wait and brave the lines on Nov. 8?

The county has a number of options for early voting, which runs in DeKalb from Oct. 17 to Nov. 4.

During the early voting period, voters can cast ballots at three locations:

  • Central DeKalb: The Voter Registration and Elections Office (which has designated areas for seniors and disabled residents), 4380 Memorial Drive, Suite 300, Decatur. Open 7 a.m. to 7 p.m. Monday through Saturday.
  • South DeKalb: The Gallery at South DeKalb Mall, 2801 Candler Road, Decatur. Open 9 a.m. to 8 p.m. Monday through Saturday.
  • North DeKalb: Tucker Recreation Center, 4898 LaVista Road, Tucker. Open 7 a.m. to 7 p.m. Monday through Saturday.
