Said Perdue: “Here’s the reality: The state of Georgia is in play.”

“The stark warning from a GOP senator — who is not considered among the most vulnerable Republicans this election cycle — illustrates the fear among Republicans that Democrats’ chances of taking back the Senate continue to grow.”

We've been edging closer and closer for years now. Stacey probably won, but even with the "official" count, she came damn close.

Trump carried Georgia in 2016 with 50.77% of the vote - with Brian Kemp doing the counting.
