2020 Early Voting Primary

May 15, 2020

Early voting for the 2020 Primary elections across Georgia will be Monday, May 18th through Friday, June 5th.

After weeks of uncertainty, early voting for the 2020 Primary season is finally going to happen. Counties across the state are adding extra precautions in light of the continued presence of the Coronavirus, but officials are confident that they can manage a safe and accessible election.

Remeber, both the Presidential Preference Primary (PPP) and the General Primary elections were postponed. If you did not vote in the PPP, both elections will be on your ballot. If you voted before the PPP was halted, your ballot will only contain general primary candidates. With added measures instituted for in person voting, we remind REALTORS to take advantage of vote by mail option also. 

To learn where you can early vote, visit the Secretary of State’s office here and select your county for a list locations.
