Fulton is 100% counted now and Trump has a lead state-wide of around 80K. DeKalb is Biden's best chance to close the gap and it's 86% counted. The rest of the Democrat-leaning counties are pretty much offset by the remaining rural vote.
Also, it's looking more and more like Perdue will win and get just over 50% of the vote, which eliminates the need for a January runoff.

I believe hours ago when they started counting the secretary of state said he didn't think the outstanding ballots would change the results.
The real problem today is how difficult it has been to get any information.
It looks like Trump will take Georgia. but its going to be a nail biter, and could still go Biden.
One thing for sure though is bidens got 248 in the bag and called. to trumps 214. Nevada and Maine has Biden in the lead...and rising, so I suspect they will get Biden to 270. There are some rumors that Pennsylvania might go Biden. Have to wait and see. Georgia and North Carolina still too early to call, but current votes favor Trump.

At this point I'm not fussed either way. WaPo reports 99% in and Trump has 50.2% to Biden 48.6%. About 78K difference which I'm not sure they will find. But maybe they will.
What I do care about is Perdue, and he is showing - with 97% counted - 50.6% of the vote. If this holds above 50% then it's another Republican Senator locked in for 6 years.
Then, in January, when all of the urban young voters can't be bothered to turn out for Warnock in the special election, Loeffler will win as the rural voters will still show up.
I predicted ahead of the election that Ga and Tx should mirror the 2018 Ga Gov and 2018 Tx Senate races and it looks like that will come to pass. Then again I also thought Dems would pick up one of NC or Ga. That Ornoff also hit those numbers pretty much means that is pretty much the new normal in Georgia.
In 2022, the Isaakson seat will be back on the ballot as well as the statewide races. It will be interesting to see if those races revert more R, stay at this 2% split or move slightly D. In 2024, I think Georgia will be more of a battleground than Florida.

It will be a battleground, but 2 years under Biden is a long time. The big ticket will be Governor Kemp's re-election, and if Stacey Abrams runs against him again.
I don't think there will be as many D dollars floating around as their main goal - remove Trump - will have been done.
Perdue is down to 50.3% now with 94% reported according to the NYT.
Still around a 140K lead, but he’s slowly losing ground. This might end up in a runoff.
