Why Voting Matters

Voting is how Lee County residents shape the decisions made in their name. The next election for Lee County voters is Georgia's 2028 presidential preference primary, on a date not yet set, or the May 23, 2028 general primary if that comes first; local elections can come sooner, so check your local election office. With retail and wholesale trade among the county's biggest employers, issues like local businesses are decided by the officials voters choose.

In the 2024 presidential election, about 17,700 ballots were cast in Lee County, up about 6% from 16,700 in 2020. With roughly 25,700 adults living in the county, that is around 69% of adult residents, above the statewide rate of about 60%.

That means roughly 8,040 adult residents did not cast a presidential ballot. Some are not eligible, but many are, and that is a lot of untapped power. If just one in 20 of them voted, Lee County would add about 402 voices, more than enough to decide a close local race.

With about 96 residents per square mile over 356 square miles, Lee County is a place where neighbors often know their local officials. The county is home to about 0.3% of Georgia's population.

ZIP codes in or partly in Lee County include 31701, 31707, 31721, 31743, 31763, 31764, 31787 and 39842. Take two minutes to confirm your registration, preview your ballot with the links on this page, and decide when and how you will vote. Bring a neighbor along.
