If you haven't voted yet, today's the day. Polls are open from 7 a.m. to 7 p.m., and anyone in line by 7 p.m. can still vote. On Election Day you must vote at your designated polling place, which you can find on the My Voter Page on the Georgia Secretary of State's website.
At the polls, you check in, verify your identity, mark your ballot and review the printed paper ballot before scanning it. That goes for first-time voters too. Georgia has shattered midterm early voting records, but plenty of people still vote today, so we suggest going early.
