  1. I have been off the voter rolls in Savannah for years. However, I received an email from your office today using the email I was using when I registered to vote. I contacted the voter fraud division in Georgia to ask how you would have my email and if someone could be voting in my name in Savannah. I tried to find a telephone number to contact your office- no phone numbers are in your ads. Please send me a phone number so I can talk to someone in your office.
