Hundreds of people in Midtown #Atlanta are now on their balconies cheering Joe Biden’s election. Whistles. Truck and car horns. A few cow bells. Maybe some pots and pans grabbed from the kitchen #gapol #JoeBiden #ElectionResults2020 #Georgia
Georgia& #39;s vote count currently stands at Trump 2,454,207 Biden 2,461,455, a Biden lead of 7,248
Fulton County, which includes Atlanta, and metro Atlanta counties, have voted overwhelmingly for Biden, while much of rural Georgia backed Trump. Historically conservative suburbs like Cobb and Forsyth counties also backed Biden
Meanwhile, Georgia& #39;s close ballot count is more than likely headed to an audit and then a recount https://www.gpb.org/news/2020/11/06/recount-likely-in-georgias-razor-thin-presidential-race">https://www.gpb.org/news/2020...
A Georgia recount in favor of a Trump win would not change Biden& #39;s election to the White House, assuming all other state counts stand
