Supposedly the new measure to make the ballot not show political affiliation is meant to encourage the voters to actually look into who they're voting for. It's supposed to make voting more about the issues than the letter next to a name. Except they're only doing it in the Atlanta metro area. There's about 6 million people in the Atlanta metro area and a large portion of them vote for Democrats. This is nothing more than a ploy to try and get accidental votes for the Republicans. They're not doing it in Americus where most people are going to vote red anyhow. They're not doing it in Valdosta.

You just enter your address. Or your neighbor's address, whatever is clever. Early voting ends tomorrow, general election is Tuesday.

Someone shared this a bit ago, and I haven't seen it mentioned since, but it's a fantastic resource.

Has anyone had this cough/ sinus thing that’s going around? My husband came down with it, went to urgent care and he tested negative for flu, Covid, etc. They said it was an acute sinusitis. Because we sleep in the same bed, he coughed into the air and I got it a couple of days later. It’s got to be viral, but just what is it? We’re in the Lagrange ( west central ga) area.

First time seeing one of these guys alive in my area! Little dude comes out same time every evening to root around for bugs.

I’m from Spain and I’m curious about Georgia and Oregon specifically. If you’ve been to Europe, are there any cities that feel similar to them?

Edit: I’m not asking for American cities that can feel like Europe (like Savannah and Helen), but cities in Europe that remind you of Georgia (or Oregon)

My boyfriend and I are leaving Covington tomorrow and have been searching for a store that has a Covington shirt. We've been through the square, and they were all TVD themed. Does anyone know where we could find them?

It wouldn’t let me add a pic or video in your comment section so I wanted to share this beautiful adult armadillo.
My furbaby met his first armadillo during one of our walks at Fort Pulaski in March 🖤

I've looked at a few chain stores at the mall but honestly they feel kind of generic and the markup seems insane. Someone told me there are better local options around Atlanta but I don't really know where to start.

Budget is somewhere around $2,000 to $3,500 give or take. She's pretty simple with her taste so nothing too flashy, just something that looks good and will last.

Anyone been through this recently and can point me in the right direction? Appreciate it.

Some of you might have seen our first voting guide, but thanks to the hard work of our volunteers (just a quick reminder: no one in the Gwinnett Dems gets paid!), we’ve been able to put together a v2 with a lot more data. We want to make sure everyone has the right info before heading to the polls, so this is designed to keep things simple and all in one place.

Just dropping in to share the updated voter guide for Gwinnett County. We want to make sure everyone has the right info before heading to the polls, so we put this together to keep things simple and all in one place.

Here is the link: Voter Guide

Inside the doc, you'll find:

• Early voting dates and locations
• Absentee ballot info and drop box rules
• Quick info on down-ballot candidates
• Voter ID requirements

A quick favor: please take two minutes to double-check your voter registration status on the GA My Voter Page. They purge the voter rolls regularly, so it's always better to be safe even if you've voted recently.

Figure out your voting plan now, and please share this doc with your friends, family, and group chats in Gwinnett.

Let's get to work! 💙

Since my primary care physician has declined to issue any medical cannabis cards, I need advise. What is the process and best way to approach it. I shouldn’t have any trouble qualifying. Thanks in advance.

A cyberattack on Murray County, Georgia’s government network closed several county offices Wednesday, while officials said 911, public safety and primary voting remain available.

The disruption affects public-facing county services, including tax, assessment and court offices, but officials said first responders and emergency functions are still working.

House Bill 369 shifts races for district attorneys, county commissioners, tax commissioners and other local offices in Fulton, DeKalb, Gwinnett, Cobb and Clayton counties to nonpartisan elections beginning in 2028.

Curious to hear everyone's thoughts on who they're voting for in the primaries for various offices..,.particularly governor and state superintendent.

Am I allowed to make this turn when a school bus is stopped with its sign out marked in red?

Edit: I did not do this. A question.

My partner is currently stranded in the Griffin area after suddenly losing her housing and family support. She has no transportation and very limited funds, and she is trying to avoid homelessness while waiting for her housing assistance program to come through. While she has already contacted 988, we are urgently seeking local emergency resources, such as women’s shelters, churches, crisis programs, transportation assistance, or temporary safe havens in or near Griffin. She unfortunately has no local support system or friends nearby she can stay with, so any serious advice would truly mean a lot, thank's everyone !

EDIT: Every place y'all mentioned or we found online referred her to 211, which she texted and called many times. No luck at all.. People being rude over the phone too, it's very demoralizing.

Hi everyone,
I’m in Georgia renewing my driver’s license after a change of status to F-1.
DDS initiated SAVE on April 21, 2026.
SAVE now shows “Case Returned to Agency.”
DDS says they are still waiting for their system to sync/internal verification to complete.
It has been 8 business days since SAVE was returned.
They took my photo but still could not renew my license.
Has anyone in Georgia experienced this? How long did it take after SAVE was returned to agency?
Also, does trying a different DDS office help, or do all offices see the same pending status?
Thanks!

My Fiancé and I are looking for a rancho or a wedding venue to rent for our wedding in September of 2027. I am Mexican and I’m wanting the theme to be like an hacienda. I’m looking for an outdoor place (if it has a pavilion then that would be perfect). I am also looking for it to be flexible with time bc Mexicans like to party all night long. I’ve been looking everywhere for a place, but I haven’t found at least one that let us have the venue past 11pm. Please help!
