We track every contested local race on the District 5 Special Election Runoff ballot in Macon-Bibb County — Board of Education, Water Authority, and State Legislature primaries. We show up to the Board of Elections on election night and enter results by hand as precincts report.
If a race you care about isn’t here, it’s either unopposed or outside Macon-Bibb County. We’d rather be honest about our scope than pretend to cover everything.
We’re on-site at the Macon-Bibb Board of Elections on election night, entering vote totals into this page by hand as each precinct reports. No algorithm, no estimate — just the numbers posted in the lobby, delivered to you in minutes instead of hours.
Local election results in Macon-Bibb are delivered the old-fashioned way — on paper, in person, at the Board of Elections lobby. That’s how the county has always done it, and PeachTracker doesn’t change a thing about how it works.
We just thought it’d be nice if folks who couldn’t make it down there could still follow along. So we show up, watch the numbers come in, and post them here. A community project, for the community.
