Nearly 60 percent of registered voters in Cobb County have voted as the final phase of the 2024 general elections awaits.
On Tuesday, Election Day, those voters who haven’t voted must go to their assigned precincts to cast their ballots, or submit absentee ballots.
After Friday’s finale for three weeks of early voting, Cobb Elections reports that 311,389 early votes have been cast, almost all of them in-person.
Nearly 18,000 absentee ballots have been accepted, and following a court order on Friday, those voters who got their ballots late and mailed them after Wednesday will have some extra time for them to be received in order to be counted.
The two early voting locations in East Cobb had some of the highest turnout, and here are the final individual breakdowns (full details here):

Across Georgia, more than 3.7 million early votes have been cast, and total turnout is around 4 million, according to the Georgia Secretary of State’s Election Data Hub.
That’s also more than 55 percent of the eligible state electorate, as Georgia is once again a battleground state in the presidential race.
Nearly all of Georgia’s 159 counties have reported turnout of 40 percent or more, and with a few reporting near or surpassing 70 percent.
The polls on Tuesday will be open from 7-7, and voters must bring an photo identification with them.
