Elected Officials Information

All municipal office terms are for four years, with elections held every two years. This means that the mayor and three council members run at one time, with the other three council members running two years later.

The purpose of staggered terms is to ensure Council is never entirely composed of freshmen members. The City Clerk serves as the Qualifying Officer for municipal elections.

You must be registered as a resident 29 days prior to the election within the area you intend to vote. You must register to vote with Paulding County or online at the Georgia Secretary of State’s Office.  For addition information on qualifications for City of Dallas Elected Officials, please refer to the City of Dallas, Georgia Charter.
