Micah and Nathaniel, I was gonna say it could also be that runoff elections are less important to people and so they decide later in the voting period (i.e. today) that they indeed were going to vote. I don’t know that we can link it directly to anti-vote-by-mail rhetoric. There was a ton of that in the run-up to November.

Yeah, Micah, I’d buy that theory — especially since, with the holidays, Georgians had fewer chances to vote early in person than they did in the general.

Micah, that would also be a bit of a coup for the less-traditional pollsters (again, big if). The top-rated pollsters, according to our ratings, haven’t been active in Georgia.
