West Hall Baptist Church.
The West Wall Baptist location will remain, despite some voters complaining of having to wait up to an hour to cast their ballots.
Tom Smiley, chairman of Hall County’s board of elections, said that shouldn’t be a problem in the runoff with fewer voters. But they are considering changing the location for the elections in November.
