MACON, Ga. — Bibb County saw one of the highest turnouts Sunday compared to other days of the early voting period. It was the first and only day of Sunday voting in Macon-Bibb.
The Board of Elections says a total of 511 people cast their ballot Sunday, which is much higher than last Saturday when only 179 people voted and higher than this Saturday when 460 people voted.
“It’s a simple process, but the most important thing is to vote. You know, get out and exercise your right to vote,” said Latrellis Dent.
Caroline Adams says she hopes there are more Sunday voting options in the future.
“You have a chance to have your breakfast, go to worship service, and then just go come on out and vote. I mean, it's an opportunity to cast your vote, make yourself be heard,” said Adams.
Early voting will continue until Friday, May 20. Polls are open from 8:30 a.m. until 5:30 p.m.
