The November 8 general election is just one week away. Georgia voters hoping to beat the lines on election day have just a few days left to cast early ballots. Early voting ends on November 4.
Already, 1.6 million Georgians have voted.
According to state elections officials, Georgians have cast 1,505,447 early in-person ballots and submitted another 155,104 absentee mail-in ballots through October 31.
Georgia has posted record early voting turnout since the polls opened on October 17. Election officials continue to encourage voters to take advantage of the flexibility offered by early voting. Most counties offer multiple early voting locations, but on election day, voters must vote at their assigned precincts.
According to the secretary of state’s office, 1,054 ballots have been rejected statewide – accounting for .06% of the total votes cast. Those voters will receive “cure notices” explaining how they can cure any discrepancy.
