Historic early voter turnout in GA [View all]

Through Thursday, 944,426 people had voted in Georgia – that’s almost three times as many ballots cast as at the same point in the last midterm elections in 2014.

Jimmy Lee, a 34-year-old certified public accountant, said he considers himself an independent voter who votes for both Republicans and Democrats. This year, however, he said, he was voting not only for Stacey Abrams, but voting a straight ticket for all Democrats.

“I think we have moved too far to the right,” Lee said. “And we need to move closer to the center.”
