About 8,000 Hall County voters cast their ballots this week for the presidency and local races, according to Elections Director Charlotte Sosebee, a larger-than-expected turnout for the first week of early voting. The average wait time topped out at about 30 minutes, she added. The pace in the first week of early voting matches or exceeds turnout in 2008 and 2012, Sosebee said.
