Georgia voters cast just shy of four million ballots during this year’s election, a record high number for a midterm election in the state, despite allegations by prominent Democrats that Republicans were intentionally trying to suppress minority votes.

According to Georgia Secretary of State data, 3,957,598 voters cast ballots in the 2022 midterm election, up slightly from 3,949,905 in 2018 – a difference of 7,693 ballots.
