Polls will be open from 7 a.m. to 7 p.m. for Election Day.
Doors open at 7 a.m. Tuesday for Election Day, but the voting has already begun.
The Woodstock precinct had 1,085 voters last week, out of the 14,880 registered Woodstock voters.
Another 420 of Woodstock’s voters traveled to Canton to the Cherokee Elections Office for early voting along with 844 of Canton voters to cast their ballots for their respective municipalities, said Cherokee Elections Supervisor Janet Munda.
The county had a total of 2,940 votes cast early for the county ballot.
Polls will be open from 7 a.m. to 7 p.m. Woodstock voters will vote on three city council positions and a Sunday alcohol sales referendum. County voters will also be voting on a Sunday alcohol sales and a renewal of an education penny sales tax.
The Sunday alcohol sales and Ed-SPLSOT renewal are Special Elections on the ballot. If voters pass the Sunday alcohol sales referendum, retailers will be authorized to sell malt beverages, wine and distilled spirits between 12:30 p.m. and 11:30 p.m. It is on the city and county ballots.
If voters are in favor of the Ed-SPLOST, the education penny sales tax will be renewed giving a collective $155 million dollars to various scholastic projects in the county. It was last approved in 2006 and will expire next year. This is a county issue.
All registered voters are eligible to vote on the county ballot, and voters living within the city limits of their municipalities are eligible to vote on their city ballot.
