Advanced, Absentee Voting Available for Runoff Elections

Peachtree Corners long-awaited first city elections are over, but the majority of city council seats, Posts 3, 4, 5 and 6, are still undecided which means voters will be heading back to the polls for runoff elections on April 3.

The date falls during spring break for Gwinnett County schools as well as some private schools. If you plan on being out of town that week, you'll still be able to cast your vote before you go.

"Advanced and Absentee voting will be available for the runoffs," said Lynn Ledford, Director of the Gwinnett County's Elections Office. "But due to the short time between election dates, voters will need to come to the Lawrenceville office for advanced voting," she said.

Ledford said she expects to have the ballots for advanced voting in the elections office the week of March 19 but suggests voters call before coming to ensure the ballots are available.

The Gwinnett County Voter Registration and Elections Office is located at 455 Grayson Highway, Suite 200, in Lawrenceville, 30046 (in the Town Center shopping center). The election office phone number is: 678-226-7210.
