Early voting begins in Georgia for November election: What voters need to know
- Early voting for Georgia's 2026 midterm election began Tuesday, allowing voters to cast ballots at any county location through October 30 before the November 3 general election.
- The general election features high-profile statewide contests, including races for governor and the Senate. Fresh candidates entered the gubernatorial race this year after Governor Brian Kemp became ineligible to run for a third term.
- Voters must present valid photo identification, such as a Georgia driver's license or U.S. passport, to cast ballots. Polls are generally open weekdays from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m., with some weekend availability.
- Democratic candidate Keisha Lance Bottoms faces Republican Rick Jackson for governor, while incumbent Democratic Sen. Jon Ossoff seeks a second term challenged by Republican Rep. Mike Collins.
- Candidates must clear a 50 percent threshold to avoid a runoff election on December 1. With the registration deadline passed, voters should verify their status on the Secretary of State's website.
