Election Day is Tuesday and party nominations will soon be decided in Georgia.
The polls in the Georgia primary open at 7 a.m. Residents must be in line by 7 p.m. to vote, according to the Georgia Secretary of State's Office.
Candidates must clear the required 50 percent plus one vote threshold to avoid a runoff in the primary. If there is a runoff, it will be held on June 16.
This year's election will slide new faces into some of the state's most powerful positions, including governor. Georgia will also see a new secretary of state, lieutenant governor and attorney general.
The primary will also show which of the five Republican candidates for U.S. Senate will move on to challenge incumbent U.S. Sen. Jon Ossoff in Georgia.
During early voting, 671,739 ballots had been accepted as of Wednesday, according to data from the Secretary of State's office. Democratic turnout outweighed that of the Republicans in the final days of early voting.
Georgia voters can check the Secretary of State's website for races on the ballot in their city.
Voters should go to the My Voter Page to determine if they are eligible to vote and to find their polling place and early voting locations. Voters can also confirm their addresses are up to date and view sample ballots.
A runoff election will be June 16, if necessary. Absentee ballot applications will be accepted through June 5 for the runoff.
Georgia's law requires photo ID while voting — either in-person or absentee.
The following identifications are accepted for voting, according to the Secretary of State's office:
