Early vote looks good for Ossoff but there are a ton of Republican votes to draw from, including many who did not vote round one. Outcome will largely depend on how effective both campaigns are at getting out the vote. I've heard/read repeatedly that Ossoff has a much better ground game than Handel, and how she's basically devoting her time to fundraising.
I have a feeling a decent amount of the more pro-Trump Republicans who supported candidates like Bob Gray will stay home. I remember reading something from a reporter who was at Gray's party the night of round one. He described how, in a speech full of cheers and applause, when Gray finally endorsed Handel and urged his voters to support her, there were no audible cheers from the audience. They clearly weren't very excited about the prospect. She's definitely distancing herself from Trump while still being careful not to veer too far off in either direction. I wonder how much this neutrality/measured approach will impact her.
