Georgia's Very Own Megathread!

[Jeppe]

As bad as Lance Bottoms is doing in Buckhead, Norwood isn't faring that much better in the south side either. I think Bottoms is favoured at this point, seeing as the south side has a larger share of the population.

[Jeppe]

Bottoms now up 52-48 with 89% reporting.

[Jeppe]

After eyeballing the remaining dozen or so precincts left to report, I'm 99% sure Keisha Lance Bottoms is going to win. The precincts are split somewhat evenly between Bottoms and Norwood precincts, with probably a few more Bottoms precincts.

[Jeppe]

To someone who has been watching the precinct map... is it me or did Bottoms flip some of those DeKalb precincts from Norwood as the night wore on? I thought Norwood would win that handily but now it looks like she underperformed.

She did, but the ones she flipped were majority black anyway, so it wasn't a big surprise.

[Jeppe]

The "east precincts" are empty precincts, they didn't have any votes in November, they won't have any votes tonight. All the remaining votes are scattered around Fulton County.

[Jeppe]

07J (Buckhead precinct)
09A (Norwood precinct)
11P (Bottoms precinct)
06I (Bottoms precinct)
07N (Bottoms precinct)
07E (Norwood precinct)
07D (Norwood precinct)
07A (Norwood precinct)
06E (Norwood precinct)
01I (small voter precinct)
03I (small voter precinct)
10M (Bottoms precinct)
03S (Bottoms precinct)

There should be 5 more precincts, but that may be the empty precincts.

[Jeppe]

07J (Buckhead precinct)
09A (Norwood precinct)
11P (Bottoms precinct)
06I (Bottoms precinct)
07N (Bottoms precinct)
07E (Norwood precinct)
07D (Norwood precinct)
07A (Norwood precinct)
06E (Norwood precinct)
01I (small voter precinct)
03I (small voter precinct)
10M (Bottoms precinct)
03S (Bottoms precinct)

The last 3 precincts are the empty DeKalb precincts. With that, it should be safe to say that Keisha Lance Bottoms is the winner.

[Jeppe]

There's one last precinct outstanding that I can't find, and it's driving me nuts, but yeah, at least 4/5 remaining precincts are empty.

[Jeppe]

With 100% of the precincts recorded, Keisha Lance Bottoms is leading by 759 votes, or 0.008% of the vote.

[Jeppe]

There's Trumpers on PredictIt claiming there are still Dekalb precincts left to count?

Everybody keeps mentioning the empty precincts. There are literally no voters there, lol.

[Jeppe]

Good night for all the EMILY’s List ladies. All of them won!

One more left tonight, Wendy Carrillo in California. She's off to a 10 point lead, hopefully it sticks.

[Jeppe]

There's probably gonna be a recount but let's remember that Reed didn't lose a single vote in 2009 during that recount.

Electronic voting, so not much a recount, but rather an audit.

[Jeppe]

Is the GA Dem primary electorate usually that black? 65% seems pretty high.

[Jeppe]

Here's a stream of a debate Evans and Abrams had last night hosted by the Georgia Association of Black Women Attorneys.

That’s a very specific organization.

[Jeppe]

I might be wrong, but I think that John Barrow is going to lose to Dee Dawkins-Haigler. I just can't see him doing well in the Atlanta metro, and this is sorta 2018's theme.

[Jeppe]

Trump endorsed Kemp. It’s gonna be Kemp vs. Abrams in the Fall!
