Secretary of State - Elections Division - Numbers of Registered Voters and Racial Breakdown Files
Scope and Contents
This series consists of forms, correspondence and miscellaneous items that indicate the total numbers of voters registered by county in the State of Georgia. In earlier years the totals were simply put on a running "tally sheet" that was set up alphabetically by county. Later years saw the counties sending in a signed form stating the total numbers of registered voters for that county. Racial breakdown figures appear during some of the years, but it must be pointed out that not all counties are represented in all cases. The correspondence is generally between the Elections Division and the various counties' Elections Registrar. This series is similar to "Certification of Number Electors by Racial Breakdown" beginning in 1980 (OCGA 21 - 2 - 234). These records can be found in RG 2 - 2 - 112.
