Georgia is now +7 for Biden (thought, Kennedy, speech, leader)

[GearHeadDave]

It's a tie in Georgia on Oct 20. Biden with a slight edge.

Yeah I don’t think polls of GA mean much anymore.

It’s a pure tossup the rest of the way.

All depends on voter turnout now. Stolen shamelessly from the sos ga site.

Another 200k votes cast yesterday, I think we may hit 3 million by election day, looks like record turnout this year in Georgia.

Looks like lot of early voting

538 now rates GA 50/50, a pure tossup.

I early voted in GA today.

My wait time in a wealthy white area was less than 1 min. There was one person in line in front of me.

Contrast this with a lot of poor black areas where it seems like you might have to wait hours.

In GA, are early voting areas designated by county? I ask because in FL, specifically in Broward and Dade counties, there are multiple early voting locations you can chose from. I assume GA does not function like this.

It is designated by county but there are multiple options per county.

In my county I had 37 locations to choose from.

It could be that other counties either are not offering enough locations or that the locations they have are poorly staffed so the lines don't move quickly enough.

GA. is now at 2.9 million votes cast, 169k votes were cast today.

Really thinking we are at 3.5 million votes cast before the election, 2016 election was 3.9 million.
