Fulton County, Georgia, held a special election for two county commission seats on November 7, 2017. These elections were necessary because of the resignation of Chairman John Eaves to run for mayor of Atlanta and the death of District 4 Commissioner Joan Garner. Races for commission chair and District 4 required runoff elections on December 5, 2017, because no candidate received a majority of the general election vote. The filing deadline for the District 4 election was August 25, 2017, while the filing deadline for the chair election was September 20, 2017.[1][2][3]
