- Dear Dekalb Board of Registrations and Elections:
For the Special Election for the Congressional Seat in the Sixth District there were no early voting locations in Brookhaven, Chamblee, or Tucker.
At the time of the most recent census 51,000 people were recorded as residing in Brookhaven.
At the time of the most recent census 10,000 people were recorded as residing in Chamblee.
At the time of the most recent census 27,581 people were recorded as residing in Tucker.
We respectfully ask for the Board to add and open early voting locations to allow these residents to have better access to early voting in Brookhaven, Chamblee, and Tucker for the runoff scheduled on June 20, 2017 for the Congressional Seat in the Sixth District.
Thank You!

Please consider adding early voting locations that are convenient to the voters of the 6th District-- especially considering the traffic issues we now face. Sixth District DeKalb voters are in Chamblee, Brookhaven, Northlake, and Tucker.
Please increase the early voting locations available in Chamblee, Brookhaven, and Tucker! Additional locations are so badly needed and there were not nearly enough, in convenient locations for residents to vote in the District 6 primary.
The initial April turnout showed much higher early voting numbers in Cobb and Fulton where polling places were easily accessible. DeKalb voters were put in a disadvantageous position in this very important election. Please make it easier to vote in the run-off. Thank you.
As a committed 6th district voter, I can attest to how difficult it was to get to the Memorial Drive location to vote early -- especially with 85 out of commission. Please add locations in District 6 for the runoff.
There needs to be Early Voting locations for the 6th in the 6th! Getting to Memorial Drive is an obstacle for many voters especially with increased traffic on 285 due to the 85 problem. Thank you!
Early voting needs to include weekends.... at convenient locations in Tucker and Chamblee
We need more options for early voting places in dekalb. Especially with all the traffic chaos in Atlanta right now

We should be doing whatever can be done to insure the greatest number of people are able to vote. More early voting locations are essential. I've been frustrated by thinking Brookhaven would be open when it was closed in the last election during early voting. Please change that. Thanks,
