October 13, 2026: Voting: And So It Begins

Voices of Resistance hosts Barbara and Opollo talked with Chatham County League of Women Voters of Coastal Georgia (LWV) President Alison Harris regarding the mechanics of voting on this first day of early voting in Georgia.  The LWV began in 1920 to assist 20+ million women vote in advance of passage of the 19th Amendment. 

Alison shared the where, when and how to vote in GA in 2026.  She directed us to the My Voter Page, which can be found at http://, including early voting locations and time.  She directed us to the My Voter Page at http://mvp.sos.ga.gov/.   If you are registered to vote, you can easily find your page.  From there, you can use links to find your early voting and day of election locations and times, how to apply for an absentee ballot and so much more.  For more information, you can reach out to the LWV at https://www.lwvcga.org or call the Chatham County Board of Elections at 912-201-4375.  She advised that if you try to vote, but your name is not on the list, request a provisional ballot and resolve the issues with the Board of Election.

The LWV is a non-partisan organization that assists all citizens to register and vote, but they do not endorse candidates or issues.  Alison shared her contact email with us if you would like to reach out to her:  alisonh@lwvcga.org.

Next Tuesday, we plan to talk with representatives from the Southern Workers Assembly about their efforts to organize workers and communities throughout the south.
