Voters across northwest Georgia are entering the final week of early voting ahead of the May 19 primary election.

Early voting is continuing this week in Chattooga County at the Chattooga County Registrars Office, giving residents the opportunity to cast their ballots before Election Day next Tuesday.

Local election officials are encouraging voters to take advantage of early voting to avoid possible lines and scheduling conflicts on Election Day. Voters are reminded to bring a valid photo ID when voting in person.

Voters in the May 19 Primary Election must choose a Democratic, Republican, or Nonpartisan ballot. Primary elections are where political parties determine their candidates for the General Election in November.

Election officials say absentee ballots must also be returned by the close of polls on Election Day in order to be counted.

Residents who have questions about polling locations, sample ballots, or voting hours are encouraged to contact their county elections office.

Election Day voting will take place Tuesday, May 19.
