Georgia voters continued to hit record breaking turnout on day fifteen of Early Voting. As of Tuesday morning, Georgia continues to break records with 1,638,286 voters casting their ballot during Early Voting, with 130,413 showing up on Monday, October 31st. Georgia has had record Early Voting turnout since the first day of Early Voting this year, surging to nearly twice the number on the first day of Early Voting in 2018. As of day fifteen of Early Voting in 2018 only 1,199,424 voters had cast a ballot.

“At least two million Georgians will cast their ballots early," said Secretary of State Brad Raffensperger. “It’s the work of our Elections Division and the county election directors that have gotten us here. Voting in Georgia is safe, secure, and accessible – and Georgians know that.”

Voters have begun to return Absentee (mail) ballots at a higher pace, and as of Monday, 172,059 ballots have been returned to county election offices. Only 1,356 ballots have been rejected statewide, and those voters receive cure notices explaining how they can cure any discrepancy.

No substantial delays were reported yesterday. Early Voting turnout is expected to increase during the final days of Early Voting. To find Early Voting locations and hours in your county, visit the Secretary of State’s My Voter Page.
