Joe Biden has TAKEN THE LEAD in Georgia
To give you an idea of what a journey Georgia has been in this election, at one point on Tuesday night the New York Times election needle said that Donald Trump had an 84% chance of winning the state. But as the days have dragged on and mail-in ballots have finally been counted, we’ve seen Biden claw his way back in Georgia, setting up a nail biter.
Now Joe Biden has finally pulled ahead of Donald Trump in Georgia by 914 votes. There is every mathematical reason to expect Biden to remain in the lead and win the state. But based on how close it could end up being, major news outlets could decide to wait until more straggler votes come in before calling the state.
In any case, Joe Biden’s victory in Georgia merely gives him 269 electoral college votes. He needs 270 to win the presidency. So even if Georgia is called for him, he’ll need to win one additional state.
