Metro Atlanta residents who live in Fulton, Cobb, DeKalb or Gwinnett counties can drop off their absentee ballots over the weekend and on Monday, Nov. 4, the day before Election Day, at their local election offices.

The last day of early in-person voting is Friday, Nov. 1, but residents in these counties can continue dropping off their absentee ballots at these times and locations before Election Day. On Election Day, offices will be open from 7 a.m. to 7 p.m. for hand returning absentee ballots.

Clayton County will not have locations open this weekend for hand-returning absentee ballots, but Clayton residents can return their absentee ballots by hand on Monday, Nov. 4, from 8 a.m. to 5 p.m. and on Election Day on Tuesday, Nov. 5, from 7 a.m. to 7 p.m. at the Jonesboro Historical Courthouse, South Clayton Recreation Center and Carl Rhodenizer Recreation Center.
