Time is running out for residents who want to take part in next month’s primary election in Georgia.
Voters have until Monday to register in order to be eligible to cast a ballot in the May 19 primary. Registration can be completed online using a valid Georgia driver’s license or state-issued ID.
Residents can check their registration status, view sample ballots, and find additional election information by visiting the Georgia Secretary of State’s My Voter Page.
The upcoming primary will determine which candidates from the major political parties advance to the November general election. Key races on the ballot include one of Georgia’s U.S. Senate seats, the governor’s race, and other statewide offices such as lieutenant governor and secretary of state, along with local races depending on the area.
Early voting for the primary begins Monday, April 27. Voters are encouraged to check with their local county election office for polling locations and hours.
Those planning to vote will need to choose a Democratic, Republican, or nonpartisan ballot. Party ballots allow voters to help decide nominees for the general election, while nonpartisan ballots are limited to races such as judicial contests.
Officials also remind voters to bring proper identification when heading to the polls.
