In 2008 and 2012 there were Obama voters lined up around the block. Poll worker said there was a line early this morning, but when I got there around 8:30 I didn't have to wait. I'm at a different precinct this time, so I'm going to ride around a bit and see how things look. What are you seeing at your polling place?

I voted in Cobb County - Newt’s old district- a week ago Friday. Took an hour to vote.

There was a long line where I voted. Right next store was another polling place and people who were parked on the street due to back ups. I’d say turnout is as high as I have ever seen.

We need freepers who early voted to go to their precinct and see if it counted.

Georgia is not in play. Romney won Georgia in 2012 by 10.5%, and I don’t expect Hillary to be more popular than Obama was in 2012.

Reports that that a lot of early votes did not count.

Georgia is not in play. Do not believe that for one minute. I live in a county that went 72% to Romney and 27% to Obama even though none of us cared for Romney. This year I had to vote early. The lady at the poll said they normally average 600 people a day on early voting and so far there were averaging 2,200 per day. This county will go big for Trump. We hate Hillary. Atlanta, Columbus, Macon, Savannah will probably go for Hillary but not as big as for Obama but the rest of the State I think will have huge turnout for Trump.

My thoughts as well, but they keep showing us as pink instead of solid red on the map.

They’re using skewed/biased polls to produce that result.

Georgia will go for Trump by 3 to 6 points, bet on it.

There were over 100 in line when I got to my precinct at 7am. Waited for about 30 minutes. Longest line I have ever seen at this polling location with the exception of 2004.

A friend posted on Facebook that they received a robocall last night that they hadn’t voted (Georgia), even though they did early voting. They wanted to check it out, and when he got to the precinct this morning, there was no record of their voting previously. Yikes!

Middle Georgia here. The longest lines I’ve ever seen at my precinct — typically red precinct — I arrived 5 minutes before polls opened, and there were 60-70 ahead of me. Lines moved fast. Didn’t see an easy way to distinguish Dem-Rep, but seemed to be a lot of “working folks”.

What A Wonderful World
Louis Armstrong

I see trees of green, red roses too
I see them bloom for me and you
And I think to myself what a wonderful world

I see skies of blue and clouds of white
The bright blessed day, the dark sacred night
And I think to myself what a wonderful world

The colors of the rainbow so pretty in the sky
Are also on the faces of people going by
I see friends shaking hands saying how do you do
They’re really saying I love you

I hear babies crying, I watch them grow
They’ll learn much more than I’ll never know
And I think to myself what a wonderful world
Yes I think to myself what a wonderful world
