What this document is
A sample ballot of this kind is a preview document Georgia counties produce ahead of an election so registered voters can see the exact races, candidates and ballot measures that will appear on their individual ballot before they go to vote, arranged by precinct since ballot content varies across a county. Cobb County's elections are administered by its Elections and Voter Registration office, part of county government in the Atlanta metropolitan area, which is responsible for producing sample ballots alongside its other election-administration duties.
Because a sample ballot reflects one specific election, an older copy is tied to whatever races and candidates were on the ballot at that time and has no bearing on any later election. Georgia counties, Cobb included, typically reissue sample ballots for each election cycle rather than maintaining a single ongoing version.
Cobb County's elections office publishes current voting information, including how to find an individual sample ballot ahead of an upcoming election, through its own county government website.
