When and where to vote early for August runoff

In-person voting begins Monday for Aug. 11 election.

- By Amanda C. Coyne

Just like that, it’s time to vote again in Gwinnett County.

A handful of races from the June 9 primary must be decided in a runoff. Voters across the county will be able to cast ballots in Democratic primaries for sheriff and board of commission­ers chairman, though runoff candidate Lee Thompson Jr. has suspended his campaign and has urged voters to cast a ballot for candidate Nicole Love Hendrickso­n.

Both Democrats and Repub- licans in District 3 can vote in that district’s runoff for a board of commission­ers seat.

Election Day is Aug. 11, but in-person early voting begins Monday. Voters are also currently able to request an absentee ballot from the county, which can be mailed in or put in a secure drop box.

To cast a ballot in person, you can go to the county elec- tions office from 7 a.m. to 7 p.m. any day of the week from Monday to Aug. 7, three weeks total. The elections office is located at 455 Grayson Highway, Suite 200, in Lawrencevi­lle.

Four satellite locations around the county will be open for one week: Aug. 1 to Aug. 7. All locations will be open 7 a.m.-7 p.m. The locations are:

■ Bogan Park Community Recreation Center, 2723 N. Bogan Road, Buford
