Georgia set a new record for first-day early voting, with over 300,000 ballots cast, according to an update from Gabriel Sterling, chief operating officer in the Office of the Georgia Secretary of State.
Sterling posted the announcement on X, stating that the tally was 123% higher than the old record for the first day of early voting.
Sterling said in a previous X post that Georgia had already surpassed early voting numbers by 1 p.m. on Monday, with several hours of voting still to go.
He praised the efforts of county election offices and voters alike, describing the turnout as "MASSIVE" and encouraging Georgia residents to continue participating in the election process.
