Georgia’s election countdown: Nate Silver’s take, Trump’s Atlanta rally and DeKalb’s Turnout Concerns

With just one week left until Election Day, nearly 3 million Georgians have already cast their ballots. On today’s episode of The Atlanta Journal-Constitution's Politically Georgia podcast, hosts Greg Bluestein, Patricia Murphy and Bill Nigut speak with famed pollster Nate Silver. We’ll get his pulse on the Georgia race and hear his thoughts on critiques that some of his models are biased in favor of Donald Trump.

We also break down Trump’s latest campaign push in Atlanta, with a rally at Georgia Tech aimed at energizing his base.

Finally, we head to Dekalb County to examine lower-than-expected Democratic turnout. Longtime Democrat and Dekalb CEO Mike Thurmond joins us to share his thoughts on what these numbers could mean for Election Day and beyond.
