Today Joe Biden ‘officially’ won Georgia, which has been red for nearly three decades. By adding 16 electoral votes, that brings his total to 306. Stacey Abrams, who lost her run for Governor in 2018, deserves much of the credit for Biden’s win in that State since she and her followers registered hundreds of thousands of new voters to cast ballots for Joe Biden.
