"Record number of early votes cast in Georgia as election gets underway in battleground state"...
...it is definitely going to be a close race, but it won't be lacking for voter interest...here's an excerpt from the linked article...
------------------
A record number of early votes have been cast in Georgia on Tuesday as residents headed to the polls in a critical battleground state that is grappling with the fallout from Hurricane Helene and controversial election administration changes that have spurred a flurry of lawsuits.
More than 328,000 ballots were cast Tuesday, Gabe Sterling of the Georgia secretary of state’s office said on X. “So with the record breaking 1st day of early voting and accepted absentees we have had over 328,000 total votes cast so far,” he said.
The previous first day record was 136,000 in 2020, Sterling said.
The swing state is one of the most closely watched this election, with former President Donald Trump trying to reclaim it after losing there to President Joe Biden by a small margin four years ago, leading Trump and his allies to unsuccessfully push to overturn his defeat.

You should be so lucky...and accomplish so much...for others.

Politicians do nothing for others. It's all about winning elections and enjoying the spoils.

You don't think creating and passing the Affordable Care Act to be a benefit to tens of millions of
Americans...freeing them from bondage to employers...eliminating the "Pre-Existing Condition" restriction? Even deep red states, like Kentucky will never give up their versions of the ACA...then there's the much needed Infrastructure Bill and the Bipartisan Border Security/Immigration Senate Bill...
Yes, we need constant oversight (see SCOTUS Justice Thomas' $260K RV), but good work IS being done.
I have reservation on this Carter' voting thing. I paid attention to Jimmy Carter situation recently
I respect him highly. He had been in hospice care for 19 months. 4 months ago his grandson said his grandfather did not wake up everyday. That's before Harris replaced Biden.
So, about his voting. I have no doubt Carter vote is 100% legit and he will vote partyline, i.e. any D nominee. But his voting is in his very poor physical and mental condition. They shouldn't hype his voting. They shouldn't use a dying person who often sleeps 24 hours a day, had brain cancer and in hospice care for very long this way in politics.
Love how a former Chicom soldier weighs in on an ex president voting.

Probably a bunch of uneducated Union dumbasses can't get off work to vote.

Certainly a large number of AFL-CIO, UAW and local Teamsters will be voting for Harris and Dems,
since she and they have stood for workers rights, while DJT likes the idea of "Firing" anyone who tries to unionize...in his mind, only CEOs deserve to get huge raises...for all the effort those workers put out.
What a bunch of dumbasses.

I drove through Georgia a few weeks ago. If signs in people’s yards are any predictor, Trump will
win Georgia in a landslide.
They were even registering voters outside of a gun show, in Gainesville, GA.
I remember seeing one Harris/Walz sign compared to thousands of Trump/Vance signs. (And saw quite a few people wearing Trump shirts, including a fair number of Black men.)
If sense people are highly motivated to show up to vote for Trump this year in Georgia.
It really depends on where you are driving through
The Democrats have plenty of support in certain areas of Georgia. It will likely be a close race again.
Yup. Think the R’s will squeak it out but it will be close.

People show up to vote AGAINST a candidate they seriously dislike
These are the worst pair I’ve seen in my lifetime
Darwin was wrong!
Kamala Harris is an accomplished Prosecutor, AG, Senator and VP, with no crimes, nor examples of
ethical or moral turpitude...plus, she has clearly defined plans...in writing...for our Economic future, Border Security, Immigration Policy, Energy Security, Women's Rights, Middle and Lower Class Advancement, along with Foreign Relations consistent with long standing bipartisan U.S. Policy...and finally, she has the Energy, Intelligence and Drive to sustain her for all 4 years...if not 8.
You already know all about Donald Trump...who, btw, wants to aid and abet Vladimir Putin in wiping out your relatives in Ukraine.
There is absolutely NO ROOM for Equivocation in this election...time to make a decision...Harris or Trump?...what's your choice?
Kamala Harris slept her way into politics and has not one single accomplishment to her credit.
ALL her races were essentially unopposed.
THIS IS WHY i WANT HER TO WIN.
It will be four years of nothing.
How on earth did you totally miss KH turning a $4B deal into $20B+ for CA residents hurt by
Big Banks in the "Great Recession"??...or getting Pharma drug prices down for ALL citizens.
That salacious comment about her dating Willie Brown is a stain on you, not her...and as far as politics go, she pulled out a victory in a very tight AG race in CA, and more recently turned a losing race into a very winnable one...all on her ability to demonstrate clear thinking, and policy making that even appeals to many leading Republicans.
Do some research next time before you spout off.

There’s not much to say on that but offer an eye-roll.
Your statement only says you’re looking to justify voting for djt who is the worst choice as POTUS in America’s election history. Harris is not even in your decision making.
If you really need to justify choosing djt on the open you know without doubt you’re about to make the absolute worst choice by supporting djt.
It’s a terrible dilemma you’re in having to choose what you know is the best choice but your worst impulse will win out. Good luck.
So if someone is against Kamala they are for Trump?
I’ve posted many times that my ideal outcome is a Kamala win and a Republican Congress. I just won’t pull the lever for either of these clowns.
You keep placing Harris in the same corruption gamut as djt.
She’s not corrupt nor is she bad. You may not like the Biden legacy, but you cannot say the Biden Harris years were bad for America because flatly they have been stupendous.
She may not be impressive to you but she’s smart enough to surround herself with a smart hard working people. Djt will surround himself with criminal yes men.
In this election, yes. I am against her in general, but strongly for her against him.

There's only one "Clown" and he's a genuine threat to our democracy...and to world order...don't
Wimp out on this one...do the MOST you can to see that Trump is not elected...VOTE for Harris...then see who the GOP puts up in 2028.
Hilarious that you would believe that.
Not surprising though.
Not surprising you’re posting in support of your cult leader.
