Source: the Georgia Secretary of State's election data hub: its unofficial turnout dashboard (every accepted absentee and advance in-person ballot by county, ballot style and date, linked to voter demographics) for 2024 and 2026, the November 2022 general data hub, and its twice-monthly voter registration tables. Counts are accepted ballots through the as-of date.
Where 2026 stands
Against the same day in 2022 and 2024
Cumulative ballots by day
Each line is the running total of accepted ballots by days before Election Day. Georgia elections fall on a Tuesday, so the same day count lands on the same weekday each cycle. Advance in-person voting ran Oct 17 – Nov 4 in 2022, Oct 15 – Nov 1 in 2024 and Oct 13 – 30 in 2026: it starts 22, 21 and 21 days out and ends on the Friday 4 days out each time. Past cycles run to their final count; 2026 stops at the as-of day.

2026 vs 2022 and 2024 at the same day, by county
Every count is cumulative through days before each Election Day. 2022 is the last midterm and the closest comparison; 2024 was a presidential year with much higher turnout.

Who's turning out, per 100,000 active voters
Accepted early ballots divided by active registered voters in the same group, per 100,000 of them, so groups of different size can be compared. Georgia has no party registration, so this tracker splits by race and ethnicity, sex and age, which the state records for every voter. 2026 is set against 2024 at the same day; the state's dashboards have no demographic detail for the 2022 early vote.

Mail ballots: requests, returns and rejections
Returned as a share of mail ballots issued, by day
Rejected as a share of mail ballots returned, by day
Same day and final
Mail includes UOCAVA ballots delivered electronically and returned by mail. "Returned" counts every ballot back at the county, accepted or rejected. Rejected ballots can be cured: a voter whose ballot is rejected for a missing or mismatched ID or signature can fix it until three days after Election Day.
Why mail ballots were rejected
Why mail ballots were cancelled or spoiled
Most cancellations are routine: the voter chose to vote in person instead, or the ballot was undeliverable and reissued.
