Cobb County officials have set up four drop boxes for absentee ballots

An “unprecedented number” of absentee ballots has been requested and mailed to voters for the June 9 Presidential Preference Primary, General Primary and Nonpartisan General Election, according to a county statement.

These drop boxes will help Cobb voters return their absentee ballots “in a safe, contact-free way,” the statement added.

Four official ballot drop boxes are located around the county and monitored by cameras to ensure the ballots’ security.

Drop boxes are available at:

  • East Cobb Government Service Center, 4400 Lower Roswell Road, Marietta
  • South Cobb Government Service Center, 4700 Austell Road, Austell
  • North Cobb Regional Library, 3535 Old 41 Highway NW, Kennesaw
  • Elections Main Office, 736 Whitlock Ave., Marietta
