So there are still about 100,000 votes to count VMA131Marine Nov 2020 #1

2% left. That's 98105 votes. He needs to make up 18,540 votes in those 98,105. Squinch Nov 2020 #2

If the votes are coming from DeKalb & Fulton Counties, Biden can win. CottonBear Nov 2020 #3

Yes, Fulton and DeKalb are blue counties. gademocrat7 Nov 2020 #4

Chatham County/ Savannah are still processing & counting. CottonBear Nov 2020 #5

Meaning there might be more votes out there than we are taking into account? Squinch Nov 2020 #6

Yes. Absentee ballots submitted on Nov 3 + military CottonBear Nov 2020 #7

I wonder how the military will go. Squinch Nov 2020 #8

There are huge military bases here in GA. Lots of POC in the army. CottonBear Nov 2020 #9

If the 97.9% counted number is accurate.
So Joe has to make up an ~19,000 vote deficit. Basically, he needs to get over 60% of the remaining vote and he seems to have been doing much better than that up to this point. I believe he will win Georgia.

Georgians what do you think, given the places where those votes are coming from?

Ossoff may be able to force a runoff. You need 50% + 1 vote to win outright.

My county Gwinnett has elected Democrats across the board. County Commissioners, Sheriff, District Attorney and a Congresswoman. We are part of Metro Atlanta.
