MACON, Ga. — The final push is on in the Georgia senate race.
GA Secretary of State Brad Raffensperger tweeted the average statewide wait time to vote is under two minutes.
On Tuesday, the first voter in the line at the Appling Middle School in Maconwas ready to talk about his reasons for voting.
“I usually vote early. This is probably the first time in many years that I voted in person” Bill Reynolds said.
The swell of Georgians who came out to early vote is one reason Reynolds decided to cast his ballot on Election Day instead of early voting.
“I didn't early vote because every time I went up the lines were wrapped around the building. It made me happy to see that many people going out to vote, but being a teacher I didn't have time to go earlier or have time on the weekend," he said.
Like many others, he's eager to see the results.
“It's exciting to be on election day, on a runoff and it's more exciting the state of Georgia is having a big role in politics now," Reynolds said.
“We may have different views but what's important is to be able to have the freedom to speak by voting,” Barabara Fischer said.
As for Timathi Britt, she says the process was a breeze for her.
“It's pretty simple, pretty easy, came in and got it. Now I'm headed to work," she said.
Reynolds had a similar experience.
“Its simple. I'm excited. I can't wait until 7 o'clock when the polls close to see if my vote counted toward the candidate I wish to win," he said.
Polls in close at 7 p.m. But if you're in line at 7 p.m. you are allowed to vote even if there's a wait.
Remember, if you're over 75 or disabled, you can be moved to the front of the line to vote.
