The Central Election Commission (CEC) has reported that almost 1.2 million people have cast their ballots as of 17:00, 34% of eligible voters.

CEC spokesperson Natia Ioseliani once again stated that the voting process was taking place in a ‘generally calm’ atmosphere, without ‘meaningful violations’.

The number of voters is lower than what was recorded in the last three local elections, as well as the October 2024 parliamentary elections, which saw a 51% voter turnout by 17:00.
