How to check the to make sure your ballot was accepted

If you voted by mail-in absentee ballot or by in-person early voting, both are considered absentee ballots in Georgia.

In this year of election uncertainty, you might want to make sure your ballot was received and processed. Here’s how:

Go to the Georgia My Voter page operated by the Secretary of State. You will be asked to sign in with your name, county and date of birth. Then look for “Absentee Ballot Request Information” and choose the link that says “Click here for Absentee Ballot/ Early Voting status.”
