DeKalb Board of Registration and Elections Expands Early Voting Locations with Addition of Neighborhood Church in Atlanta

DeKalb VRE modifies three Election Day locations due to availability

DeKalb Board of Voter Registration and Elections (DeKalb BRE) approved the addition of one new advance voting location during a Special Called Meeting on June 10. Neighborhood Church, located at 1561 McLendon Ave. NE in Atlanta will serve as the eleventh advance voting location.

The following locations will be available for advance voting, from June 13 to June 17, 7 a.m. to 7 p.m. Registered DeKalb voters can vote at any location during the advance voting period.

The Election Day changes for the three sites are temporary and are only in place for the runoff election on June 21. All Election Day voting locations open at 7 a.m. and close at 7 p.m.

“Expanding access to advance voting locations helps improve the voter experience in DeKalb by making it easier and more convenient for people to cast their ballots ahead of Election Day,” said DeKalb VRE Executive Director Keisha Smith. “We try our very best to avoid modifications to Election Day polling places. However, with these changes, we are committed to ensuring impacted voters are well aware of the necessary changes by issuing direct communications to those voters, placing prominent signage at the changed locations and amplifying messages across various communications channels.”
