If Warnock and Ossoff do win, Democrats will have full control of Washington for the first time in a decade, since they lost the House in 2010.
Over the past 40 years, Democrats have controlled the White House, Senate, and House for just 4 years total.

People talk a little bit too broadly about the athletes' social movements. The WNBA players have generally been really far ahead of the curve, and beyond that, extremely organized. I don't think there's any question they helped propel Warnock in his race for the Senate

11:20 PM:
The bottom line in Ossoff/Perdue: Perdue is outperforming Trump in suburbs w/ lots of country club type Rs (no surprise).
But he's underperforming Trump in heavily Black areas, where there's a slight but significant drop-off in White turnout relative to Black turnout. #GASEN

Warnock is on track for victory with a greater than 95 percent chance to win, according to our estimates.

9:20 PM:

Another worrying underperformance for Rs: Early County (SW GA). Was Trump+5 and Perdue+11 in November but both Perdue and Loeffler are barely scraping by there with over 90% reporting. #GASen
— Niles Edward Francis (@NilesGApol) January 6, 2021
8:05 PM:
One thing to keep in mind is that margin shifts in rural counties (versus November) may not be representative of statewide.
For example, Democrats could outperform in most rural counties by 2-3 points but still lose if there is slippage in the Atlanta suburbs.#GASEN
— Ryan Matsumoto (@ryanmatsumoto1) January 6, 2021
7:59 PM:
Pulaski Co. (rural south GA) looks done:
Perdue 2,546-1,105 (+39.4)
Loeffler 2,524-1,126 (+38.4)
Trump (Nov.) 2,815-1,230 (+38.9)
Perdue/Loeffler running about even with Trump here, but turnout is just 90.3% of November levels. Dems could plausibly beat that in ATL.
— Dave Wasserman (@Redistrict) January 6, 2021
Not a ton of votes in those counties, but every little bit helps. I'm looking at (the extremely appropriately named) Early Co., which could be a Dem flip from the presidential result.
52-47 Trump in Nov., and with 82% of the expected vote tonight, it's 55-45 to the Dems tonight. https://t.co/qHuzCYLoG9

7:20 PM: Breitbart’s Matt Boyle on the ground in Georgia, citing a GOP campaign official with knowledge of the matter: In Hall County alone, there has been a massive increase in Election Day turnout–which significantly favors Republicans. In November, there were 15,000 approximately Election Day voters there. This time a huge surge to approximately 23,000. At an approximately 70-30 percent split favoring Republicans among Election Day voters, that represents thousands–maybe as many as 7,000 plus–extra votes for the GOP candidates this time in that one county alone as compared with November 2020. The GOP campaign source told Breitbart News that’s just one county, and expect to see similar trends across the board in several others.

— Brian Tyler Cohen (@briantylercohen) January 5, 2021
DeKalb election day turnout approaching 46k, if these figures are accurate, putting it on track to surpass the general. The big question, of course, is whether this simply augurs for a big D turnout (as this is a very D county) or a big Election Day turnout (the key to the GOP)
— Nate Cohn (@Nate_Cohn) January 5, 2021
Republicans optimistic about Forsyth and Cherokee counties.
A few thing I'll be looking for in GA:
Turnout in Forsyth County (Rs) and Clayton Clayton (Ds). I suspect the margins mirror November, but these are base rich voting centers.
Cobb and Gwinnett margins against Nov. presidential numbers.
% of Black voters compared to November.

GEORGIA, what we know:

– Of those, 1,018,381 were mailed-in or electronically sent and 2,074,994 was early in-person.
– Advance votes in Nov. were 4,011,822 w another million ppl voting Election Day.
SO …
1/
— Lisa Desjardins (@LisaDNews) January 5, 2021
80% of Georgia's Nov. vote happened before Election day.
Based on run-off early voting, if that holds, it would mean 773,343 votes likely in-person today.
That's right around the *minimum* day-of turnout the GOP is hoping for, assuming that votes cast today favor them.

Elections happened on November 3, 2020 to elect 33 class 2 members to the United States Senate. The winners were elected into a six-year term from January 3, 2021, to January 3, 2027.[1][2][3] Two special senate elections were also held on the same day: one in Arizona after John McCain died and one in Georgia after Johnny Isaksonresigned. In Arizona, a Democrat won where there was a Republican before. In Georgia, two Democratic senators won against the Republican senators, changing the state to Democrat and changing the power of the senate from Republican to Democrat.[4][5][6]
