MAY Matters In Georgia
Countdown to our Primary election
Your community trusts you. Help them participate in May elections.
Real information about the May primary, shared by people they already trust.
You know people. They listen to you. May Matters gives you simple, nonpartisan tools to help them show up informed on May 19.
No ads. No jargon. No candidate endorsements. No political advocacy.
Why May 19 is the one that counts.
Most Georgians miss the primary for three reasons: they don't know when it is, they don't understand how it works, and they don't realize it shapes their daily life. That's what May Matters fixes.
Only 1 in 7 eligible Georgians voted in the 2024 primaries. Those races decided who leads the state.

Source: 2024 Edelman Trust BarometerWhy the primary matters: In many Georgia districts, the primary effectively decides who wins. When only one party is competitive in a district, the primary winner almost always goes on to win in November. That means May 19 is often the election that counts most.
Any registered Georgia voter can participate in either party's primary - you don't have to be registered with that party. You simply choose which ballot to request when you show up to vote.
