Jimmy Carter cast his ballot by mail in the 2024 election Wednesday. It happened barely two weeks after Carter celebrated his 100th birthday on Oct. 1 at his home in Plains, Georgia, where he’s been living in hospice care. His son Chip Carter said that his father had this election very much in mind. “He’s plugged in,” Chip said. “I asked him two months ago if he was trying to live to be 100, and he said, ‘No, I’m trying to live to vote for Kamala Harris.’” Georgia’s registered voters have been turning out in record numbers since early voting began Tuesday.Nearly 460,000 have voted in-person or cast absentee ballot.
