Georgia began voting Monday and BLUE counties reporting strong turnout.
Richmond County predicts 80 to 85 percent turnout for this election...higher than the 79 percent in the 2004 presidential election.

This is a BLUE county, went for Kerry 57% in 2004.


Early voting a hit with DeKalb voters

Early voters continued to stream into DeKalb’s voter registration office Wednesday, joining 4,567 county residents who cast their general election ballots in the first two days of the week.

Monday’s opening day of early voting at the Memorial Drive office attracted about 1,550 voters, and that number was nearly doubled Tuesday, according to figures provided by the voting office.

DeKalb went to Obama by 73% in 2004 and this is metro Atlanta.
