Aren't most of the remaining votes in Georgia mail in ballots in and around Atlanta? Surely that's a shoe-in for the Democrats.
This is why I think Biden will snatch Georgia. Down to about 19k votes now, so Biden has halved that 40k deficit. I think some news outlets have been inventively calling it the "Prosciutto slither" or something Would be massive for Georgia to go Democrat. Those pesky actors moving to Atlanta and Macon. Kind regards, Kev

Oooh, Grauniad suggesting the two Georgia Senate races may need to be re-run in Jan (apparently if no candidate secures more than 50% of the vote, it goes to a run-off) which may put the Senate back up for grabs as well. Unlikely the Dems would win those run-offs apparently but who knows in these slightly odd times?

Possibly more chance the Dems may win those run-offs if Biden snatches Georgia beforehand?!

I'd be very surprised if Purdue didn't win the run off, the other one with Loeffler could be fun though. She went hard right to fend off the other Republican, so she may struggle to pick-up all the Republican voters. The big question is what the turnout looks like in January given the current fun.

Oh, and we are down to 13.5k vote difference now, with about 40k left to go. The process here is fun to watch - if ever there was a perfect way to vote Trump out, beyond an utter landslide, a slow painful end is probably a good choice.

Most of the legal action has been pretty frivolous for now. The Courts have shown little willingness to undo votes in the past - essentially, even if the rules are deemed a bit dodgy, if the voters voted with those rules in place, they allow the votes to count. So far it has been stupid stuff like complaining they haven't had enough vote watchers in place - that won't change a vote unless they have evidence of errors/fraud, neither of which have reared their head thus far.

It's fantastic seeing the slow but steady Georgia switch. Biden might not even need his own State or even Nevada to win.

Didn’t the Supreme Court already reject a few law suits, pre voting day, that the Republicans brought to them? As you say it all seems a bit frivolous so far, don’t think the law suits have much legs in them

Any legal action suggesting any fraud could surely be countered by the Biden camp suggesting that, as the states Trump has issue with were republican run at the time they were asked by Trump to not count postal ballots early so he can then claim that votes counted after polling has closed should not be included?
Much more feasible than voter fraud on the kind of scale we're taking about here.
