The Secretary of State, Brad Raffensperger, has announced the first major voter list maintenance effort (No Activity for Two General Election Cycles (NGE) process) following the November 2020 election cycle. A total 101,789 obsolete and outdated voter files will be removed from Georgia’s voter registration rolls, should there be no communication from the voter. 

In Georgia, registered voters who fail to vote for five years and then don't respond to a letter from the state are moved to "inactive status." Inactive voters can still participate in elections. Voters who remain inactive for two federal election cycles without voting or having any other contact with election officials are removed from voter rolls.

Cobb County contains a total of 8,941 NGE voters.
