Early voting starts on Tuesday for an off-year election that contains two state-wide races, a county-wide referendum on renewal of the Education Special Purpose Local Option Sales Tax (ESPLOST), and competitive city races in Bishop, Bogart, and Watkinsville.
The statewide race is for two members of the Public Service Commission, and while one of those represents Oconee County voters, each candidate runs statewide, meaning that Oconee County voters play a small role in the outcome.
