Election Day has arrived, with an estimated one million Georgia voters expected to join the more than 4 million who have already cast their ballots. On today’s episode of The Atlanta Journal-Constitution's Politically Georgia podcast, hosts Bill Nigut, Tia Mitchell, Greg Bluestein and Patricia Murphy discuss the final campaign pushes from Vice President Kamala Harris and former President Donald Trump, along with their appeals to Georgia voters in the race’s closing hours.
AJC reporters are stationed across the state to capture the scene. We’ll hear from AJC bureau chiefs Fletcher Page (Athens), Joe Kovac (Macon), and Adam Van Brimmer (Savannah) about the issues driving voters to the polls in their communities and get updates on polling wait times in metro Atlanta.
Finally, AJC elections expert Mark Niesse joins us to discuss what to expect as results start coming in, how Georgia is handling misinformation and the potential for post-election lawsuits. He also offers last-minute tips for Election Day voters.
