Tuesday is Election Day again, this time a runoff to settle two statewide races from the general election on Nov. 6.
UPDATE: AJC Election results will be posted here
Before you cast your ballot, here’s what you need to know about Georgia’s runoff:
Who can vote: Any registered voter in Georgia can vote in the runoff election.
Where to vote: Voters must report to their neighborhood precincts to cast their ballots on Election Day. Polls are open from 7 a.m. to 7 p.m. statewide. Look up your voting information and view sample ballots on www.mvp.sos.ga.gov or through the GA SOS app for Apple and Android cellphones.
Who's on the ballot: The contests heading for runoffs are for secretary of state and Public Service Commission. During the general election, Libertarian Party candidates won more than 2 percent of the vote in each race, denying their opponents an outright win.
For secretary of state, Democrat John Barrow faces Republican Brad Raffensperger. The winner will succeed Secretary of State Robyn Crittenden, who was appointed by Gov. Nathan Deal to replace Gov.-elect Brian Kemp.
In the contest for Public Service Commission District 3, incumbent Republican Chuck Eaton is opposed by Democrat Lindy Miller.
In North Georgia, voters in the State House District 28 will have a special election. It's a redo of the May 22 Republican primary. A judge ordered a rare second election after dozens of voters received ballots for the wrong race in that election.
Voter ID: Bring photo identification, such as a Georgia driver's license, a state-issued voter identification card, a valid U.S. passport or a valid U.S. military photo ID.
No selfies: It's illegal in Georgia to take pictures of a ballot or voting equipment.
