Machine bugs, long lines, voting delays — Georgia's elections were mired with problems yesterday
“Today we have been inspired by the perseverance of Georgia’s voters in the face of rank incompetence and outrageous failures by state and county election officials,” Foster said.
National Democrats have not weighed in on the primary, despite their general strategy of endorsing candidates in races that are considered a priority as they seek to win back the Senate. If the race goes to a runoff, it’s unclear whether national Democrats will weigh inRegardless of who wins Tuesday or if the race goes to a runoff, Perdue will start with a hefty financial edge. He has $9.4 million in the bank as of May 20, while Ossoff had the most among Democrats with $950,000.
In a bit of a surprise, longtime Rep. David Scott will be forced into a primary runoff in the state’s 13th District. Scott, a centrist first elected in 2002, will face former state Rep. Keisha Waites in the August runoff. House Republicans avoided a runoff in the state’s 1st District, where state Rep. Nancy Mace, the first female graduate of The Citadel, won the nomination outright to take on Rep. Joe Cunningham , one of the most vulnerable members in Congress. President Donald Trump won his Lowcountry seat by 13 points.
The long in-person voting lines in Georgia came even as the state saw a massive swell of mail-in voting. Raffensperger’s office mailed absentee ballot request forms to every active voter in the state. As of Monday, a record 943,000 voters had returned an absentee ballot, a drastic increase for a state that usually sees around 40,000 mail-in voters.
