ATLANTA — The candidates for Georgia governor are traveling across the state in a final push for more votes ahead of Election Day.
Democratic nominee and former Atlanta mayor Keisha Lance Bottoms says people are showing up at the polls.
“With one vote at a time, we are going to bring hope back to Georgia,” Bottoms said.
Republican Rick Jackson says he’s trying to get his people to the polls.
“This is a turnout race,” Jackson said. “Whenever it is this close, it is a turnout race and that’s what we’re doing here and everywhere else.”
According to officials, more than 2.8 million people have already voted and election officials say more than one million more could vote on Election Day.
Georgia Secretary of State Brad Raffensperger says his office is continuing to work hard to make sure everything runs smoothly on Election Day.
For Georgians who have not voted yet, Raffensperger says now’s a good time to make sure you know your correct precinct.
“I don’t need you showing up tomorrow, especially at the end of the day and the wrong precinct,” Raffensperger said.
Last week, state officials say more than 2.3 million people voted in person ahead of the midterm election, breaking the record set during the 2022 midterm election.
In Gwinnett County, officials say eight polling places have changed locations.
Seven were moved earlier this year, however, the eighth was changed recently.
Voters who used to cast ballots at Landmark Church on Holcomb Bridge Road in Norcross will now vote at Unity Atlanta Church in Peachtree Corners because landmark recently changed ownership.
The final day of early voting in Georgia was Friday, Oct. 30.
