Tuesday, Oct. 15, marked the first day of early voting for the Nov. 5 presidential election, and Georgia voters turned out in record numbers for a presidential year.
More than 310,000 Georgia voters cast their ballots during early voting. This is up from 70,849 on the first day of early voting in the 2018 midterm election, 136,739 in the 2020 presidential election, and 134,962 in the 2022 midterm election.
“Georgia voters are smart. Despite years of lies from Stacey Abrams, failed lawyers, and ‘experts’, Georgia voters shattered records yesterday and came out in record numbers because they know Georgia’s voting system is secure, efficient, and accurate,” Secretary of State Brad Raffensperger said in a statement. “That’s why we’re at the top for election integrity and voter convenience. We’re battle tested and ready to serve every legal Georgia voter.”
