More than one million votes have been cast in Georgia through early voting.

Early voting began in Georgia on Oct. 15 and over 300,000 ballots were cast on the first day, according to The Hill.

It was reported Friday that early voter turnout exceeded one million in the crucial swing state.

“We have done it! We crossed the 1,000,000 voter mark at around 11:50am. Amazing turnout! So happy for the counties and the voters! Let’s keep it going,” Georgia Secretary of State Brad Raffensperger’s chief operating officer Gabriel Sterling wrote on the social media platform, X.

Georgia went to former President Donald Trump in 2016 and went to President Joe Biden in 2020. According to a recent poll, Trump is leading Democratic presidential nominee Kamala Harris by two points.

While Georgia and other states in the southeast were hit by Hurricane Helene, Raffensperger’s office said that it is prepared to get people to vote amid damage done by the storm.
