DeKalb (GA) may send absentee ballot applications to voters for November
DeKalb County may mail absentee ballot applications to all registered voters ahead of November’s general election.
DeKalb’s elections board discussed the measure during a Thursday night meeting but is awaiting word from the county’s Board of Commissioners on funding for the effort, vice chair Baoky Vu said. The cost of sending applications to DeKalb’s 530,000 or so registered voters would likely run a few hundred thousand dollars.
Georgia's secretary of state sent vote-by-mail applications to voters across the state ahead of last month's primary but has said he won't repeat the effort this fall.
“If the county commission supports us and actually prints the money for us, then I don’t see why not,” Vu said.
