Early voting in this year's general election begins Monday across Georgia.
County voting offices will be open Monday-Friday through Nov. 2. Georgia law also requires the polls to be open on Saturday, Oct. 27, in all 159 counties. There is no voting on Sundays.
Voters don't go to their regular polling places for early voting. Instead, they can choose to go to their county registrar's office or other early voting locations established by county election boards (see list below).

In-person early voters will use the same touchscreen electronic voting machines the state uses on Election Day.
Absentee-by-mail early voting is also still available. About 45,000 ballots had been mailed through Thursday. That's twice as many as at the same point in the 2014 midterm elections.
Absentee ballots can be requested from your county election office and they must be returned on or before Nov. 6.
During the election four years ago, about 37 percent of voters filled out their ballots before Election Day.
