Special election to decide who helps set the prices on your power and gas bills
Richmond County voters have until May 19 to register to vote in a special election to help decide the next seat on the Georgia Public Service Commission.
The special primary election will be from 7 a.m. to 7 p.m. Tuesday, June 17, the Richmond County Board of Elections recently announced. All in-person voting requires a valid photo ID.
The Georgia PSC rules on issues involving investor-owned telecommunications, natural gas and electric utilities. Notably, it helps set and regulate the rates Georgians pay for those utilities.
Advance voting will be from May 27 to June 13 at the Linda W. Beazley Community Room, 535 Telfair St.; the Henry Brigham Community Center, 2463 Golden Camp Rd.; the Robert Howard Community Center, 103 Diamond Lakes Way; and the Warren Road Recreation Center, 300 Warren Road.
