Georgia Election Law results in Record Early-Voting Turnout

Georgians demonstrated their confidence in the state’s election integrity and ease of voting by showing up in record numbers during three weeks of Early Voting for the 2022 Primary, reports the Georgia Secretary of State’s Office.  More than 850,000 residents cast a ballot in person or return an absentee ballot in Georgia this year.  Compared to Early Voting turnout in recent primaries, this represented a 168% increase over the 2018, the last Gubernatorial Primary, and a 212% jump above 2020, the last Presidential Primary year.  Election Day is today, Tuesday, May 24.  Polls open at 7am and close at 7pm.  You can still return a previously requested absentee ballot by 7pm on Tuesday.
