The special election to fill the vacancy in the Georgia House District 45 seat created when Representative Matt Dollar resigned will be held on this Tuesday, April 5. Advance voting closed on Friday, April 1.
Because of the confusion caused when the Georgia Secretary of State’s office scheduled the election for April, but updated the My Voter Page to reflect the new redistricting maps, Cobb elections posted the following with a link to help residents determine whether they are eligible to vote in this election.
Please view a copy of the map below to identify the GA House District 45 boundaries prior to 2022 redistricting. My Voter Page has been updated to reflect the Decennial Census redistricting. It will not reflect accurate eligibility for this Special Election. Residents may verify if they are eligible to vote in the GA House District 45 Special Election, by visiting:
