The final day of early voting ahead of next week's Georgia Senate runoff was much like the first day, marked Friday by long lines at a number of voting locations and growing numbers. In Fulton County, 17 of the 24 early voting locations reported wait times of more than an hour on Friday afternoon. It was more than two hours at Chastain Park Recreation Center in Atlanta just after 2 p.m., according to the county's online wait times tracker. Fulton County said only voters would be allowed Friday at several libraries and a senior center that are serving as early voting locations.
