Today is the General Primary Election and voters will be going to the polls in Chattooga County to vote on a handful of contested races.  Polls will be open today from 7 AM until 7 PM.  All voting today will take place in your local precinct.  Voters will need to be sure to bring a picture ID when they come to vote. 

Voters will be asked to choose a Republican, Democratic or nonpartisan ballot when they go to the polls today.  Georgia is an open-primary state, meaning voters do not register by political party and may ask for any ballot of their choosing.  All contested races for constitutional offices in Chattooga County are on the Republican Ballot.  Voters who choose the GOP ballot will be asked to choose between two candidates for county commissioner and between four candidates for coroner.  Additionally, voters find contested races for the 53rd State Senate District and for Superior Court Judge.
