Georgia's Supreme Court allows early voting on the Saturday after Thanksgiving, rejecting an emergency request from Republicans to block it
Counties in Georgia are not required to offer early voting on Saturday, but many have said they will do so, after Democrats successfully sued to challenge instructions from state officials claiming that early voting the Saturday after Thanksgiving was unlawful. The move is a victory for Democrats, including Sen. Raphael Warnock, who is seeking reelection in a December 6 runoff election against Republican Herschel Walker.
The Republican groups had argued that Saturday voting violated state law and would benefit Democratic strongholds, creating an “unequal system where some counties will vote on November 26 and others will not.” In response, Warnock’s campaign and Democratic party committees argued that at least 19 Georgia counties – including several with substantial numbers of Republican voters – already were proceeding with Saturday voting.

Raphael Warnock and Republican Herschel Walker. The Court of Appeals declined a request by the state to stay a lower court's ruling that said state law allows early voting that day. Republican Secretary of State Brad Raffensperger had told county election officials that early voting could not be held that day because state law says it is illegal on a Saturday if there is a holiday on the Thursday or Friday preceding it.
