    With 8.2 million registered voters, the state is set to choose its next presidential candidate, as Vice President Kamala Harris and former President Donald Trump are in a closely contested race.
    Similar to the 2020 election, Georgia is viewed as one of the critical states that could influence the final outcome.
    Former President Trump is scheduled to campaign in the state shortly after early voting begins, with a rally planned at the Cobb Energy Performing Arts Centre in Atlanta.
    Early voting will continue until November 1, with some counties offering additional voting on Saturdays and Sundays.
