Election Day is Tuesday

The May 24th Primary Election is Tuesday.  Many people in Rabun County have already cast ballots by taking advantage of Early Voting, says Rabun County Elections and Voter Registration Director Tammy Whitmire.  “Rabun County had a wonderful turnout for Early Voting.  We had 2,301 come out and vote early in person.  We’ve also had 272 returned already.  So, we’ve had a total of 2,573 people have already cast their votes here in Rabun County.  So, we just want to encourage everybody to come out on Election Day on May 24.  We will be open from 7am to 7pm.  For those of you that still have those paper ballots in hand, it is not too late to walk those back in.  You can walk them back into the office all the way to 7pm.”  Whitmire reminds voters that they will be casting their ballots at the new office.  “Just to remind people that we are at a new location on Election Day.  We will not be at the Civic Center.  We will be at our Election Office at 184 South Main Street in Clayton.  So, we just want to remind people of that.  Have their photo ID and that’s all they will need.”  Once again, the Rabun County Board of Elections and Registration Office is located at 184 South Main Street, Suite 102 in Clayton, in the lower level of the Rabun County Health Department.
