Midterm Election

By Collin Kelley

Early voting is underway across Georgia ahead of the Nov. 8 midterm election, which will see ballots cast in fraught races for governor, U.S. Senate, U.S. House, and more.

Ballots can be cast Monday through Friday until Nov. 4 at polling places in Fulton and DeKalb counties.

In Fulton, advance voting takes place 7 a.m. to 7 p.m. You can see polling places and sample ballots at fultoncountyga.gov and click on the General Election 2022 tab.

In DeKalb, advance voting is also Monday through Friday from 7 a.m. to 7 p.m. You see locations and a sample ballot at dekalbcountyga.gov and clock on the “How Do I” tab for voter information.

On Oct. 17, the first day of early voting in Georgia, the Secretary of State reported that the more than 125,000 votes cast surpassed the first-day midterm record of 72,000 in 2018.

More than 4 million Georgians are expected to vote in this year’s midterms as high-profile issues like abortion rights, inflation, and education continue to spark conflict.
