Early voting to be held at Tate Center

Registered Athens-Clarke County voters will be able to take part in advance voting for the Nov. 6 general election on Oct. 30 and 31 at the Tate Student Center from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. 

Voters in elections are required to show one of the following six forms of photo ID when voting: a Georgia driver’s license, even if expired; any valid photo ID issued by the state or federal government, including a free voter ID card issued by the county registrar or Georgia Department of Driver Services; valid U.S. passport; valid employee photo ID from any branch, department, agency or entity of the U.S. government, the state of Georgia or any county, municipality, board, authority or other entity of Georgia; valid U.S. military photo ID; or valid tribal photo ID. 

A precinct card lists an individual’s voting districts and precincts. It is not required to vote. Those who have misplaced or have not received their precinct card within three to four weeks of submitting their voter registration application should contact the Athens-Clarke County Board of Elections office at 706-613-3150 to request a new precinct card or to check their applications status. Applicants may also check their status through the Georgia ­Secretary of State website at http://sos.ga.gov.
