A recent survey conducted by the University of Georgia’s School of Public and International Affairs reported positive sentiment from Georgia voters after the November elections, according to the Secretary of State’s Office.
The survey polled voters on various aspects of the voting process in Georgia during the recent Presidential election, specifically 1,541 registered voters.
A news release from Secretary of State Brad Raffensperger’s office said Raffensperger “was pleased with the results of the survey,” calling it “a win for Georgia voters.”
“Over half of Georgia’s voters had zero wait, and 98% thought their poll workers went above and beyond…94% of voters knew it’s easy to cast a ballot, and 4 out of 5 voters trust the process,” Raffensperger said. “I’d say Georgia elections are on the right track. These results show what we’ve been saying all along: Georgia elections are secure and accessible.”
High points from the survey included:
- 98% of voters had no issue casting a ballot.
- 98.3% of voters gave high marks to poll worker job performance.
- 98.5% of voters felt safe casting a ballot.
- 96.2% of voters had a positive experience while voting.
- 93.9% of voters found it easy to cast a ballot.
- 91.5% of voters trusted the integrity of the process, with 95.4% of Conservative voters expressing that their vote was counted accurately, compared to 88.6% of Liberal voters.
- 80.8% of voters experienced a wait time of less than 10 minutes.
“The 2024 post-election survey results from Georgia voters are a true testament to the exemplary performance of election directors across the state,” Donald Palmer, vice chair of the U.S. Election Assistance Commission said. “I appreciate the continuing efforts of Secretary Raffensperger and local election officials to foster confidence in the integrity, security, and accessibility of Georgia elections.”
