BlockBeats News, November 6th, according to CNN, Georgia Secretary of State Brad Raffensperger is optimistic about being able to predict the winner in Georgia on election night. He stated that over 4 million early and absentee ballots have been received and verified, and all this data must be uploaded and recorded within one hour after the polls close.
Most polling places will close at 7 p.m., so by 8 p.m., "maybe 99% of the data will be processed, and you will have a rough idea of the situation," he added. "All the voting data tonight will also be processed by the end of the day."
Many small counties in Georgia are working to finish counting by 10 or 10:30 p.m. "But by the end of the night, you will have all the results." At the time of posting, it was 1:10 p.m. on November 5th in Georgia local time (GMT-5).
