Important Change

There are no exceptions. 

Things to Know on Election Day

  • ***ATTENTION***Polling places changes effective August 2021 for voters assigned to the 29-Polo and 37-Sawnee precincts: Voters assigned to the 29-Polo precinct, who voted at Grace Chapel Church of Christ, have been reassigned to the Fowler Park Recreation Center for the upcoming election. Voters assigned to the 37-Sawnee precinct, who voted at the Parks & Recreation Natural Resources Operations Center, have been reassigned to Greater Heights Baptist Church.

  • Please verify your Election Day polling place at www.mvp.sos.ga.gov prior to going to the polls.
  • An Advance Voting Location MAY NOT be your designated Election Day polling place.
  • Four of the five Advance Voting locations (Hampton Park Library, Midway Park Community Building, Sharon Springs Park Community Building and Cumming City Hall) are also Election Day polling places. On Election Day ONLY those voters who are assigned to those designated polling places should go there to vote.
  • The Forsyth County Elections Office is open all day on Election Day to answer any questions a voter may have and to accept voted absentee ballots. Our office IS NOT open for voting on Election Day; it is not an Election Day polling place.
