GA-UGA: Tie

[Podgy the Bear]

This is presently getting considerable coverage on the WSB-TV/radio stations (the largest in the metro Atlanta market).  Both sides think that someone will get to the 50% next Tuesday and there won't be a runoff.  There seems to be good news on both sides (Abrams winning independents by a big margin and Kemp winning college educated women by a significant margin as well).

This is truly going to be a turnout effort--Democrats have done their best, but Georgia is still a tilt R state.

And the 32% white woman vote for Abrams is being pulled up by the more educated voter subsection (perhaps they lean Kemp but by a relatively small margin--it was not noted in the news broadcast).

It looks like she will at least match if not exceed the white vote percentage that Jason Carter received. This is an amazing result and something I didn't expect at the beginning of the campaign.  With a strong independent vote and new voter support, she has a chance to exceed 50% on Tuesday.
