Georgia Secretary of State Releases Vote Totals for Declared Write-in Candidates

The Georgia Secretary of State has released write-in totals for the declared write-in candidates. See them here.

For president, the only candidates who had write-in status, and who were on the ballot in at least one state, were Peter Sonski of the American Solidarity Party, independent candidate Shiva Ayyadurai, and independent Jay Bowman. Sonski got 730 write-ins, Ayyadurai got 37, and Bowman got 30.

In 2020, the American Solidarity Party presidential candidate had received 701 write-ins in Georgia.

Claudia De la Cruz and Cornel West were not able to be declared write-in candidates, because by the time they were disqualified, it was too late to file as a declared write-in. They were both on the ballot but signs at the polling places announced that their votes won’t be counted.

For U.S. House, 11th district, write-in candidate Tracy Verhoeven got 10,226 write-ins, which was about 2.5% of the total. She had been endorsed by the Democratic Party after the party’s primary had been won by a candidate who did not support Democratic Party stances on issues. Thanks to Kyle Bennett for the link.
