Early Voting Begins In Swing State Of Georgia

Georgia and Utah began early voting on Tuesday, joining the vast majority of states that have already kicked off the 2024 election.

With the two new entries, 46 states and Washington, D.C., have begun some form of early voting. Here’s how to send your ballot.

Georgia has voted Republican in all but two elections in the last four decades. The first was former President Clinton’s landslide win in 1992, and the second was 2020, when President Biden brought the state back to the Democrats by 11,779 votes.

A win for either candidate here would make their path to victory easier. The Peach State has 16 electoral votes on offer,

Democrats do well in metro Atlanta, home to more than half the state’s population, and particularly its densest counties, Fulton and DeKalb. There is a higher concentration of Black and college voters there.

The surrounding suburban areas also help Democrats run up the vote, but the further out you go, the more competitive the counties become. Cobb County (Biden +14) and Fayette County (Trump +7) are great examples, just north and south of Atlanta.

and with recent polls showing a tight race, it’s ranked “Toss Up” on the Fox News Power Rankings.
