Post Georgia here!

Which states closed their polls about twenty minutes ago?

Nathan Deal is leading Roy Barnes 60% to 36%!! Whoo Hoo!!

Nice!!!

I just spent 2 hours in line to vote here in Ga and for a midterm election.

Of course it would have been much shorter if I taken advantage of the 45 days of early voting.

The race (other than Gov) I am watching is GA-2. With a little over 2 % reporting Mike Keown leads 55-45% this would be a huge upset if Keown beats Sanford Bishop

All swing districts in GA (GA-2, GA-8, GA-12) being led by Republicans though it is early

Nathan Deal leads 54-42 with 11.5% of the vote. the magic number is 50 for Nathan. Below that (even if he is leading) there is a runoff.

Latest Georgia report:

Almost half of the vote is in and Nathan Deal is well ahead of King Roy. I am hearing rumblings that they will be calling the race soon.

Rob Woodall easily wins election in GA-7

Johnny Isakson easily wins re-election in the US Senate

GA-2 and GA-8 look like they will flip parties (from Dem to GOP) and GA-12 is closer than the pundits thought (but Dem still leads)

Looks like a GOP sweep of state offices (HAS NEVER HAPPENED IN THE HISTORY OF THE STATE)

Wonderful! Congratulations!
