Early voting continues strong

Early voting in Georgia continues to be strong, now exactly two weeks from the general election. The Secretary of State’s office reports more than 690,000 people have cast ballots ahead of November 4th--that represents nearly 12.5 percent of registered voters in Georgia. More women than men have turned-out early, about 56 percent. DeKalb leads the list of top counties for early voting turnout, followed by three other metro Atlanta counties. Chatham County has had the fifth highest turnout.
