Save the Date: Presidential Primary March 24
Deadline to Register is Two Weeks from Today
Hello neighbors!
This is a friendly reminder to save the date for Georgia's Presidential Primary and Special Election, set for March 24, 2020. We're telling you now because the voter registration deadline is in two weeks, on Feb. 24. Check your voter status online today.
Georgia's primary is open, meaning voters can choose whether to vote in either the Democratic or Republican primary. Early voting begins March 2, and March 14 is the one Saturday that counties are required to offer early voting.
One extra thing: On the same day, we'll also be asked to vote on whether to maintain the Municipal Option Sales Tax for goods and services in Atlanta. You might recall this is the one-cent sales tax first approved in 2004 to help the city pay for our wastewater infrastructure overhaul.
Finally, we've put together a LMMNA Government and Elections page on our website to help everyone stay in the loop. It shows you a list of our elected officials, where to vote, when to vote, how to secure an absentee ballot, and much more!
The web page is a work in progress. If there is additional info you think might be helpful to feature, or anything we should correct, please feel free to contact me.
Best,
Sean
LMMNA Communications Chair
