Also, in surveys about the most important aspect of the election, the economy won out at 40%. Also, over 70% said Trump was better on the economy than Harris. So that looks very bad.

Maybe slightly better for us, but not by a lot.

Going to be a suspenseful night. No red or blue waves.

We probably will - and the initial numbers don’t look great… but we’ve seen that before

All this hand wringing I’m seeing on here and for 1) it’s early in the results and 2, Kamala doesn’t need the state. So many people on here freaking out about a state that had been reliably red for years until 4 years ago. Wouldn’t surprise me 1 bit if it reverted to the mean and went back to Trump but it’s a luxury not a need.

Per the SOS election results page. No Metro Atlanta precincts have reported yet. Everything is guessing until they do.

I feel like my hair's on fire right now - waiting for numbers to start trending toward Kamala.

My husband just put some "Frazier" reruns on TV to keep me from panicking.

if Harris can outperform in Atlanta and the suburbs, then she can make up that ground. No way to know for sure just yet.
