 Early voting is underway in Georgia’s Jan. 5 runoff election for two U.S. Senate seats, races that will determine whether both chambers of Congress are led by Democrats during the first years of the new administration. The number of Black registered voters in Georgia increased by about 130,000 between October 2016 and October 2020, the largest increase among all major racial and ethnic groups. There has also been rapid growth among Latino and Asian registered voters, though both groups make up relatively small shares of the state’s voter rolls.  The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention has cautioned Americans to avoid holiday travel this year because of the COVID-19 outbreak. A third of U.S. adults say they changed their Thanksgiving plans “a great deal,” while 24% changed their plans “some,” according to a recent Pew Research Center survey. Democrats are far more likely than Republicans (70% vs. 44%) to say they changed their Thanksgiving plans due to the virus.
