Voting in Johns Creek: Nov. 3 results, polling places and photo ID

Updated Nov. 4: The Nov. 3 election is over. Every race on Johns Creek ballots had two candidates, so none goes to the Dec. 1 runoff. Unofficial results are in our Johns Creek election results story and our TSPLOST results story.

Last checked Nov. 1, 2026. Every date, place and rule below comes from the Fulton County Department of Registration and Elections and the Johns Creek city clerk. This page is factual only. Johns Creek Now does not endorse candidates or ballot questions.

The general election was Tuesday, Nov. 3. Polls on Election Day in Georgia are open from 7 a.m. to 7 p.m., and you vote at your own assigned polling place.

Fulton County, not the city, runs voter registration and county, state and federal elections for Johns Creek voters.

After Nov. 3

• No runoff for Johns Creek voters. Every race on Johns Creek ballots was decided Tuesday.
• Results are unofficial until Fulton County and the state certify them.
• Military and overseas ballots postmarked by Nov. 3 count if they arrive by Friday, Nov. 6.
• Check your districts and your polling place for the next election on the state’s My Voter Page.

Voters renewed Fulton County’s 0.75% transportation sales tax, TSPLOST, countywide. Our story lists what Johns Creek gets from it.

Who to call

From the county’s elections page:

• Voter registration: 404-612-3816, elections.voterregistration@fultoncountyga.gov

Find your polling place

You must vote at your assigned polling place on Election Day, not at an early voting site. The state’s My Voter Page shows where it is. The city clerk’s municipal elections page points Johns Creek voters to the same tool. Polling places can change between elections, so check before you go.

If your status says “Challenged”

You can still vote. The county says the status means it needs to confirm your home address, so you get the right precinct ballot.

• You can email elections.voterregistration@fultoncountyga.gov before you go. The county says this helps but is not required.
• Poll workers can help when you arrive.
• If it cannot be settled on site, you will be offered a provisional ballot.

The county also says no voters are being removed from the roll because of this address review.

Photo ID

Georgia law requires photo ID to vote in person. The county’s voting FAQ lists these:

• a Georgia driver’s license, even if expired
• any valid state or federal government photo ID, including a free voter ID card
• a valid U.S. passport
• a valid employee photo ID from a government agency
• a valid U.S. military photo ID
• a valid tribal photo ID

If you have no driver’s license or state ID card, the county issues a free Georgia voter ID card at its election offices. It can also issue a temporary voter ID while you wait for the card.

Mail ballots: how to get yours in

A mail ballot must reach the county by Election Day. For the Nov. 3 election, the drop boxes closed with early voting on Oct. 30. The county’s absentee page says mail ballots “may not be returned at your Election Day polling place.”

For the next election, that leaves two routes:

• By mail to Fulton County Registration and Elections, Absentee Ballot Division, 5600 Campbellton Fairburn Road, Union City, GA 30213. Allow time for it to arrive.
• In person at a county election office. The nearest is the North Annex, 7741 Roswell Road, Room 251, in Sandy Springs, about 10 miles southwest. The county asks voters to call 404-612-7020 to confirm office hours.

If your mail ballot never came, the county says you can vote in person at your polling place instead.

Key dates

From the county’s Election Key Dates page:

If you missed the Oct. 5 deadline, registering by Monday, Nov. 2, lets you vote in a federal runoff if there is one. Register through the state’s online voter registration site.

City elections in Johns Creek

City races run on their own cycle. The city clerk’s municipal elections page says:

• Johns Creek elections are nonpartisan, and every council seat is elected at large.
• The mayor and council members serve staggered four-year terms.
• Elections come every two years: Posts 2, 4 and 6 in one, then Posts 1, 3 and 5 and the mayor.
• The mayor and council members can serve no more than three consecutive terms.

What it means for you

• There is no Dec. 1 runoff on Johns Creek ballots, so you have nothing more to vote on this year.
• At the next election, bring a photo ID. An expired Georgia driver’s license still counts.
• A mail ballot must reach the county by Election Day. Polling places will not take one.
