This fall, Georgia voters will have the opportunity to weigh in on a number of federal, statewide, and local races and issues during Georgia’s General Election, set for Tuesday, Nov. 8. The deadline to register to vote in Gwinnett County (or make changes to an existing registration) is Tuesday, Oct. 11. Citizens can register to vote by mail, online, or in many public buildings, including Gwinnett schools and the Instructional Support Center in Suwanee. On the Secretary of State’s (SOS) website, log on to MVP—My Voter Page—for voter registration status, mail-in application and ballot status, polling locations, and more. (Note that visitors now must complete a Captcha security screen to access the SOS website.) Voters who can’t participate in advance voting (Oct. 17-Nov. 4) or make it to the polls on Election Day also may apply for an absentee ballot by Oct. 28 by 5 p.m.

Learn more about elections on the Gwinnett County Government website, or call the Gwinnett County Office of Elections at (678) 226-7210 with questions.
