■ The date of the Lauryn Hill concert was incorrect in Friday’s Go Guide. The correct date is Oct. 13.

■ Approximat­ely 668,000 voting registrati­ons were canceled last year by the Georgia Secretary of State’s Office. The number was incorrect in an article in Friday’s Metro section on efforts to register minority voters in metro Atlanta.

■ Clarificat­ion: An article on the front page on Wednesday, Sept. 26, 2018, about voter registrati­on cancellati­ons cited numbers from the U.S. Election Assistance Commission that are disputed by the Georgia Secretary of State’s Office. As noted in the article, the federal report included voters who transferre­d their registrati­ons when they moved from one Georgia county to another. Those voters’ registrati­ons weren’t canceled, according to the Georgia Secretary of State’s Office. New figures provided by the state show it canceled 717,912 voter registrati­ons from 2012 to 2016, which is less than half the 1.5 million registrati­on removals reported by the U.S. Election Assistance Commission. Registrati­on cancellati­ons in Georgia declined from 2012 to 2016 compared to the previous four years, when 734,808 registrati­ons were canceled.
