Advanced in-person voting begins Monday

Registered voters can start casting their ballots in Georgia’s March 6 presidential primaries through advanced in-person voting Monday.

Voters will also be able to cast ballots in a special Saturday session on Feb. 25. That Saturday session was authorized as part of a new measure Gov. Nathan Deal signed into law in May. The law also shortens the advanced in-person voting period from 45 days to 21 days.
