Georgia residents have some important dates to mark on their calendars as the next election approaches. Whether voting early, by mail, or on Election Day, being aware of deadlines is key to making sure your vote counts. Here are the most important deadlines and dates:
The Details:
- Voter registration deadline: October 7
- Early voting starts: October 15
- Last day to request a mail-in ballot: October 25
- Election Day: November 5
If you’re not yet registered, you must complete the process by October 7 to participate in the election. After that, voters can begin casting their ballots early, starting on October 15, a convenient option for those looking to avoid lines on Election Day.
For those who prefer voting by mail, you must request your mail-in ballot by October 25. Waiting past this deadline could make it difficult to get your ballot submitted in time.
What’s Next: Make sure you’re registered and know your voting options, whether you’re voting in person or by mail. Early voting offers flexibility, but for those voting on Election Day, be ready to hit the polls on November 5.
For more details, visit the Georgia Secretary of State’s website or contact your local election office to make sure you’re prepared to cast your ballot.
