Following the 2016 elections, I found cold comfort in the knowledge that at least Trump lost Cobb County. I wrote at the time: TL;DR: Clinton won Cobb, it’s a big deal, the Cobb County Republican Party is remiss if they don’t have a serious come-to-Jesus conversation when the national celebrations subside, and the Cobb Democrats are remiss if they
Sen. David Perdue introduced Georgia Supreme Court Justice Britt Grant, President Trump’s nominee to serve on the Atlanta-based U.S. Court of Appeals for the Eleventh Circuit, to the U.S. Senate Judiciary Committee in her confirmation hearing.

Here are down-ballot races to watch, as well as how several top-ticket candidates are making their final pitches to voters. Here’s a look at what’s likely to influence voter this go-round.
For a lot of campaigns, the end will come tomorrow. For tonight, there is sign duty. And then waiting. The polls close in 24 hours. The following is a re-post of my column from July 31st, 2012. I thought some of you may need something about nothing to read while you wait. I’ll note that
Hillary Clinton endorsed Stacey Abrams. What was particularly noteworthy about the endorsement, made via robo-call today, is that Secretary Clinton twice made provided pneumonic differentiation between the two Stacies (“Abrams, with an ‘A'”).
