Political Rewind: Nov. 3 Morning Brings Excitement, Anxiety As Voters Line Up

Tuesday morning on Political Rewind: Polling places are open across Georgia for the final day of voting in the 2020 general election. More than 53% of Georgians cast their ballots early, but election officials caution that lines in many places could be long as up to 2 million voters may show up to vote today.

Last-minute visits to the state by President Donald Trump on Sunday and former President Barack Obama are just the latest suggestion that Georgia is hotly contested.

Political Rewind: Biden, Trump Campaigns Make Final Push In Georgia

Monday on Political Rewind: It’s the final day before Election Day. The past week saw several big names in national politics make campaign stops in Georgia, including President Donald Trump — further proof that the road to the White House leads through the Peach State.

Former President Barack Obama visits Atlanta today to boost Joe Biden and Democratic senatorial candidates Jon Ossoff and Raphael Warnock. Our panel discusses the tight races for Georgia's two Senate seats.

Nearly four million Georgians have already cast their ballots through absentee and early in-person voting, and more than half of the state’s registered voters have already voted.

It’s the last day of in-person early voting in the 2020 general election. After three weeks of record early voting turnout, today is expected to be no different. Officials have said 400,000 people could vote at early voting locations across Georgia today.
