ATLANTA — As the United States inches closer to election day, and the 2024 presidential race, Georgia voters can start asking for options to vote by mail.
Monday is the first day that voters can request an absentee ballot, though they’ll have plenty of time to choose whether they want to vote in person or by mail.
By Georgia law, absentee ballots can be requested up to 11 days before any election, whether it’s a primary, runoff, statewide or federal general election.
