2022 Georgia Midterm Election Results Certified

ATLANTA, GA — The 2022 general election results were certified Monday ahead of Friday's state certification deadline, according to Georgia Secretary of State Brad Raffensperger's office.

"Early certification is possible due to the tremendous efforts of county election officials in overseeing a secure, accessible and smooth election," state officials said in a news release.

The certification comes days after a statewide risk limiting audit of the secretary of state race held Thursday and Friday. According to the SOS office, the audit results showed a 5 percent risk limit.

“Our 2022 general election was a tremendous success,” Raffensperger said in the release. “Early certification reflects that success. Georgia has struck the balance between accessibility and security, and Georgia’s election administrators worked tirelessly to get the job done. We are so thankful for their work.”

Any candidate requesting a recount must do so within two business days post-certification, according to the SOS office.

The official results of the local, state and federal races are available on the secretary of state’s election night reporting website.
