The most competitive special Congressional election yet has arrived, and we will be providing returns live tonight right here. In addition to our district-wide totals, we will be analyzing county and precinct level returns. For the Democrats, the hope is that Jon Ossoff can pull out an outright win tonight- if he gets over 50% of the vote in this crowded field, he’s in as the district’s new Representative in Congress. If he falls short, then he will face off against one of four likely Republican opponents in a runoff on June 20th: Karen Handel, Bob Gray, Judson Hill, or Dan Moody. Polls close at 7pm and we anticipate at least early vote tallies to begin rolling in shortly thereafter. Refresh this page for the latest results tonight out of Georgia.

I sure hope that doesn’t hold up.
The press will run with it like Trump has personally been routed.
“...all of GA is not in the Eastern Time zone..”
-
Sorry, but you are just wrong.
All of Georgia is on Eastern Time.
Correct.
I’m going for 39%
According to the NYT...
DeKalb is 67% in
Cobb is 37% in
Fulton is less than 1% in
Could be; but only 20 percent of the vote is in; remember, Hillary was winning Ohio when 32 percent of the vote was in, went on to lose the state by nine points.
I just looked the other day and I am sure I saw the river that divides Bama and Jawja being the Eastern/Central line as well, with it flowing into FL Panhandle. That is the state that has the Eastern/Central divider
This is the NYTIMES link from DrudgeReport.

Yeah. Right HERE. And Ossof has now FALLEN to 47.31%.
Heading for runoff June 8th.
Ossoff has a 10,000 vote lead.
Hopefully...
My memory may be off but I remember driving just a short distance from Atlanta and suddenly being in the Central zone.
True, but that’s percentage of precincts, which can definitely be misleading.
ICE should be hanging out in Cobb county. That would change things. Cobb was far closer for Hillary in 2016 than I thought was possible.

Yes about 50 miles and you are in Alabama and central.
