The State of Georgia allows absentee voting by mail and in-person. No excuse is required to vote before election day. Georgia law allows for absentee by mail ballots to be requested up to 180 days before an election.

To request an absentee ballot, voters should complete an absentee ballot application and return the absentee ballot application to their county registration office. Absentee ballot applications can be returned by mail, fax, email (as an attachment), or in-person to the local County Board of Registrar’s Office.
