Vote by Absentee Ballot
You can request your absentee ballot now through October 25, though it’s recommended that you request and submit your ballot as early as possible to give it enough time to travel through the mail. You can request your ballot online; via email, mail, or fax; or in person. You can find the steps to each process at georgia.gov/vote-absentee-ballot.
