🗓️ The Gist: DeKalb County Voter Registration and Elections is urging all registered voters to make a plan for voting in the May 21 General Primary Election.

🤔 Why It Matters: Advance planning can help ensure a smooth voting experience and prevent issues like arriving at the wrong precinct or missing the deadline to submit absentee ballots.

❓ What’s Happening: On Election Day, voters must cast their ballots at their assigned precinct.

Voters can verify their precinct information at www.DeKalbVotes.com and view wait times.
Provisional ballots will only be available in the final hour of voting for those who arrive at the incorrect precinct.

📬 Absentee Ballots: Completed absentee ballots must be hand-delivered to the DeKalb elections office at 4380 Memorial Drive, Suite 300, in Decatur by 7 p.m. on Election Day to be counted.
