Georgia voters break the record for early voting turnout in a primary election

Georgia voters broke a turnout record for early voting in a primary election on the final day of early voting, and Republican Gov. Brian Kemp is concerned about the Democratic turnout advantage.

About 866,000 people have turned out for early voting as of 1 p.m. Friday. The previous record for early voting in a Georgia primary was about 857,000 in 2022.

And Democrats have flipped the script on Republicans this year compared to the early voting period in the 2022 primary.
