ATLANTA — In a room in at Ebenezer Baptist Church in downtown Atlanta, a group of volunteers worked diligently into the night Monday making sure people get to the polls Tuesday to vote.

The volunteers who work with the New Georgia Project, a nonpartisan nonprofit organization, told Channel 2’s Nefertiti Jaquez they have no problem working so many hours if it means people will show up in droves at the polls.

What you need to know:

• Where do I vote? Find your polling place
• Text poll troubles to 470-485-2WSB/470-485-2972
• Live real-time election results from 50+ Georgia counties on wsbtv.com
• Live coverage on wsbtv.com starting at 8 p.m. and ABC News at 7p.m.
• Live reports from the field and analysis on Channel 2 Action News Nightbeat at 11

“Tomorrow is the day. Tomorrow is the big day,” executive director Nse Ufot told the volunteers.

Ufot was at the organization’s headquarters Monday where they had yet another group of volunteers manning phones and emails.

The organization has been working since the spring to get more than 100,000 people registered to vote.

“This election is more than who is running for president. Let this be a continuation of you as a citizen weighing in on issues that matter, because everyone voices matters,” Ufot told Jaquez.

Ufot said those voices won’t matter, unless they vote.

That’s why she and hundreds of volunteers in offices across Atlanta, Augusta, Columbus and Savanah spent their election eve working.

Their hope is that their work translates to people at the polls.

“Georgia is changing so we need everyone at the table to determine the future we want Georgia to have,” Ufot said.

KEEPING YOUR VOTE SAFE

Georgia’s secretary of state says the state will be ready for Tuesday’s election.

Only Channel 2 Action News was with Secretary of State Brian Kemp Monday as he toured the state, making sure everything was ready to go for Election Day.

"I really believe we're as prepared as anybody in the country," Kemp told Channel 2 investigative reporter Aaron Diamant. "I just felt like it would be good for us to go around give voters’ confidence that we have a secure system."

Diamant got exclusive access to Kemp, his team and their plane as they inspected local elections headquarters as he visited six cities across Georgia.

Kemp addressed concerns about potential threats to the Georgia elections system and the sophisticated, high-tech plans to handle them.

"The chances of it getting hacked or rigged are just negligible. There are a lot of other things that could be a lot easier to disrupt an election than that," Kemp told Diamant.

Kemp said with federal warnings about hackers and terrorists targeting state elections, he’s not taking the unprecedented level of preparedness for granted.

"Having redundancies, having backups, you know, and having plans with the ‘what-ifs,’" Kemp told Diamant.

Kemp’s chief investigator was with the group Monday that toured the state. Both told Diamant the reality is you never know what’s going to happen on Election Day until it does.

Kemp said, either way, they will be ready.
