Early voting in Georgia

The development marks a new high for early in-person participation in a Georgia midterm election. Early in-person voting allows eligible voters to cast ballots before Election Day at designated polling locations.

Lowndes County voters

Lowndes County voters are participating as early voting continues across Georgia. The record concerns early in-person voting statewide; it does not identify a particular race or candidate.

What the record shows

The milestone reflects the number of people who chose to vote in person before Election Day. It does not, by itself, indicate which candidates or issues voters support.

Voters should check the locations and hours established for their area before going to the polls. Election officials will continue administering the voting process under Georgia’s election rules.
