Early voters in some Georgia counties have been waiting up to four hours to cast their ballots. Voters in Gwinnett County waited 3.5 to 4 hours to vote on Friday while standing in rain. Gwinnett County spokesman Joe Sorenson said, "There's more people out there today than there has been so far during early voting, and it's pouring." The line in Cobb County was a little under three hours on Friday with about 200 people waiting under an overhang trying to avoid the rain. Many counties plan to open more early voting locations on Monday.
