Candidates will qualify March 5-9 for Georgia’s May 22 election, which includes both the party primaries and the general election for nonpartisan offices. In Bulloch County, four Board of Education seats, which are nonpartisan, and three Board of Commissioners seats, for which candidates generally run as Democrats or Republicans, are up for election. Up the ballot, state offices ranging from governor to all seats in the General Assembly are available, as is a single federal office in this area, the 12th District congressional seat held by U.S. Rep. Rick Allen.
