Approximately 40 Election Day polling places will change for voters in Fulton County for the June 9 Presidential Preference Primary, General Primary, and Special Election.

A full list of precinct changes is available for download at  https://bit.ly/2zE3zaE.

Fulton County is encouraging all voters to cast their ballots through absentee ballot by mail due to the ongoing COVID-19 out break and social distancing rules.

Some polling locations changed due to date conflicts after the Election Day changes. Other sites, particularly senior centers and assisted living facilities expressed concerns about members of the public visiting those locations due to coronavirus concerns.

Voters who choose to vote in person during early voting or Election Day voting  will see some differences as Fulton County makes efforts to protect voters and poll workers from COVID-19. Out of consideration for fellow voters and poll workers, voters are asked to wear a face covering. Those in line will also be asked to stand at least 6 feet apart in accordance with social distancing recommendations. The number of voters inside the poll at a given time will also be limited.

Early voting will take place weekdays at five locations beginning Monday, May 18, through Friday, June 5,  from 9 a.m. to 4:30 p.m., and Saturday, May 30, from 9 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. Polls will be closed on Memorial Day, Monday, May 25.  Those locations may be found here.

A man was shot death early on May 16 outside a Buckhead apartment building. Officers found the unidentified victim dead of a gunshot wound to the chest around 12:22 a.m. on the sidewalk outside the Tremont Apartment Homes at 3645 Habersham Road, at the triangle intersection with Roswell and Piedmont roads, according to the Atlanta Police Department. A witness reported seeing two males in a vehicle, possibly blue or gray in color, yelling “Get him!” during the shooting, then fleeing north on Roswell Road, according to APD. The shooting death came hours after three mysterious gunfire reports in one day at another apartment complex on Pharr Road about a mile away, according to a report at Reporter Newspapers. It is too early in the investigation to determine whether there is any relationship between the incidents, said APD spokesperson Officer Anthony Grant.

The MARTA Police Department arrested and charged four juvenile suspects in connection with a robbery and assault that took place aboard a train near the Candler Park Station on May 2.  The victim in that case was 13 years old.  On May 13, MPD officers were patrolling the Five Points MARTA station when they recognized four juveniles matching the description from the lookout on the initial robbery incident.  The officers detained the juveniles (ages 17, 15, 15, and 12) and discovered two of the suspects, including the twelve-year old, were carrying firearms.  “Violent crime will not be tolerated on MARTA, whether committed by adults or juveniles,” said MARTA Police Chief M. Scott Kreher.  “We will work with the courts to hold these suspects accountable and seek justice for the victim.” All four suspects are charged with Robbery by Force, Battery, and Cruelty to Children – First Degree for the robbery incident in DeKalb County.  Two of the suspects are facing additional charges of Possession of a Firearm by a Minor in Fulton County.  The seventeen-year old suspect is being charged as an adult.

The Atlanta Police Department currently has two officers out sick with COVID-19, according to a weekly APD update. Eleven other officers and one civilian employee who previously tested positive for the disease recovered and are back at work, according to the report.
