Election Day Preview

Tuesday is election day for those of you who did not vote early and below is a look at what’s on the ballot in Hall County.

The only countywide items are the SPLOST Extension and the statewide Public Service Commission (PSC) races.

The other items are specific for the voters in those cities and towns and are non-partisan. If one is not listed, it means that though they had planned to have election, there are no contested races and, thus, under state law no election is necessary.
