www.GoodMorningGwinnett.com That is how many people visited the Gwinnett County Fairgrounds in Lawrenceville over a period of 10 hours, from 7 a.m. to 5 p.m., on Monday to cast their ballots early for the June 9 primary election. It was one of two early voting sites that opened Monday — the other being the county's elections office in Lawrenceville — and it was chosen because it's large indoor space provided plenty of room for social distancing during the COVID-19 novel coronavirus pandemic.
But hardly anyone came by.
"I think the interesting thing to note is that there is no line at the fairgrounds, and there hasn't been one all day," county spokesman Joe Sorenson said.
There were a few hundred people who came out to vote in person in the election on Monday, but most of them went to the elections office.
Shortly before the fairgrounds early voting location closed at 7 p.m., county officials said 92 people had voted there. The elections office polling location, which closed at 5 p.m., had a line of about 20 voters when it opened and saw a total of 327 voters come by on Monday.
