RELEASE: Stacey Abrams statement on Randolph County 
ALBANY – Today, the Randolph County Board of Elections voted to keep all nine of its polling locations open for the November 6th election. The county had previously considered closing seven out of the nine polling locations, but a groundswell of activism against the closures led the board to reconsider and vote the proposal down this morning. 
Democratic nominee for Governor and former House Democratic Leader Stacey Abrams released the following statement:
“Today is a triumph, not just for the people of Randolph County, but for every Georgian. In a predominantly Black, rural community, where public transportation is severely lacking, asking voters to travel up to 30 miles to access the ballot box would have been antithetical to our democratic values. I applaud Randolph County on its decision keep all nine of its polling locations open—and I recommit to ensuring that all eligible Georgians in every region of our state have access the ballot box, to cast their votes and make their voices heard.”
