Georgia has 16 electoral votes in the Electoral College. Joe Biden previously won the state with 49.5% of the popular vote. This year, Donald Trump won the state of Georgia against Kamala Harris with 50.7%, earning Trump the 16 electoral votes.

Georgia has 14 seats in the United States House of Representatives which are up for election. After redistricting following the 2020 United States Census, Republicans regained the 6th district from Democrats with the election of Republican Rich McCormick. A federal judge ruled Georgia's congressional maps were illegally gerrymandered and orders the state of Georgia to redraw the maps.^[1] The Georgia General Assembly convened to pass legislation to establish new congressional maps to be used in future elections until 2032 (when the new maps will be adopted to reflect changes in the 2030 United States census); Governor Brian Kemp signed the legislation.^[2]

Elections were held for Public Service Commission districts 1 and 4. Originally it was supposed to be up for election for the two districts, but it was postponed due to a ruling in the lower courts that was overturned by the 11th Circuit Court of Appeals.^[3]

On March 6, 2024, the office of the Georgia Secretary of State announced that the election for two of five seats on the public service commission would not be held for the time being.^[4]

All 56 seats in the Georgia State Senate are up for election in 2024.^[5]

All 180 seats in the Georgia House of Representatives are up for election in 2024.^[6]

Four seats on the Supreme Court of Georgia was held on May 21. Of the four, only the seat held by Andrew Pinson was contested, with former Democratic U.S. House member John Barrow losing to Pinson. Justices Michael Boggs, John Ellington and Nels Peterson are unopposed for re-election.

Seven seats on the Georgia Court of Appeals were up for election on May 21, with Jeffrey A Watkins, Ken Hodges, Ben Land, Stephen Dillard, Brian Rickman, and Amanda Mercier all won re-election. The remaining open seat was contested between lawyer Jeff Land and Cobb County Magistrate Judge Tabitha Ponder.

Elections for Supreme Court and Court of Appeals are at-large and non-partisan.

Out of the state's 49 judicial circuits, only 40 of them will hold elections for district attorney.^{[citation needed]}
