ALBANY, Ga. (WALB) - Dougherty County had a special meeting Wednesday to certify the election results from the January 5 runoffs.
In the meeting, the board of the elections discussed the numbers of the elections, noting that the overall numbers of the runoffs and general election were fairly close, in terms of the numbers of voters.
They usually expect the numbers to be far lower, but this year the runoffs had a huge turnout. Dougherty County runoff turnout was just over 50 percent, while the general election turnout was 58 percent.
