Flipping Georgia would be historic. Its an incredible longshot. if it happened though it would be because of the Black vote that she organized

"A number of factors are at work in Georgia this cycle, experts told NBC News.

The state hasn't backed a Democratic presidential nominee since 1992, but an influx of young, college-educated transplants to the Atlanta metro area are boosting the state’s numbers of Democratic voters. Additionally, recent polling shows there's the possibility that larger numbers of white suburban women turned off by Trump could vote Democratic, plus two extremely competitive Senate races further juicing the turnout.

Still, the biggest one is the sheer number of new, mostly Black voters.

Many of these newly registered voters are now politically engaged because of the group Fair Fight, a voter rights organization started by the Democrat Stacey Abrams following her narrow loss in the 2018 gubernatorial race, that says it has registered more than 800,000 new voters in the state.

And now, those people are going to the polls."

THE NUMBERS ARE ACTUALLY STAGGERING

As of Saturday, nearly 3.9 million Georgians had already cast their ballots — more than 94 percent of the total number cast in the state in 2016.

More than 26 percent of those voters are new or infrequent voters, according to a recent Associated Press analysis of political data — a fact that, given the Democrats’ large registration numbers, heavily favors the party.
