In Georgia, voters can head to the ballot box beginning on Tuesday and in North Carolina, early in-person voting begins on Thursday. Here are a handful of things to know about how voting and elections will work in two key swing states.

The 2024 general election is quickly approaching, but South Carolina voters will not have to wait until Election Day to cast a ballot. Governor Henry McMaster signed a law in May 2022 that replaces in-person absentee voting with an early in-person voting period for the two weeks leading up to election days.

With just a few weeks left before Election Day, in-person early voting is set to begin in North Carolina. Starting Thursday, Oct. 17, voters will be able to cast ballots in-person, at any polling place in the county in which they are registered.
