ATLANTA - Georgians have until Monday to register to vote in the November 5th general election. <br>
<br>
People registered at their current addresses already are eligible to vote in the election. It will include races for governor, Congress, the state Legislature and local seats. <br>
<br>
The election also will offer the nation's first statewide use of touch-screen voting. <br>
<br>
The computerized voting units will be used in every precinct of Georgia's 159 counties. <br>
<br>
Absentee ballots are expected to be printed and available by the end of next week in most counties. <br>
<br>
As of last week, 3.7 million Georgians had registed to vote. That's down from the nearly 4.2 million who registered four years ago.
