Whether voting early or on Election Day, if you plan on voting in-person, you will be required to show a form of ID. If you don’t have an ID or forget to bring it with you, you’ll be given a provisional ballot and will have a short grace period to provide the County Board of Registrars with an ID so your vote can be counted.
So far, Georgia has seen record turnout for early voting. 27,298 Georgians cast their ballots on the first day of early voting alone.
