Record number of Georgians registered before the Tuesday deadline.

That was the headline in our Ga. paper, The Gainesville Times, today.

I'd post the link but you have to have a subscription to read it.

;The article said Secretary of State said a record 74,425 Georgians used online registration on Tuesday which was the deadline.

I HOPE that means a LOT of them were DEMS!

I suspect that Hillary's "ground game" is better in GA too, so I'm a little optimistic that most of the new registrants will vote for her.
