re: Official: Kemp wins Georgia

There are some outstanding absentees and provisionals that theoretically could (maybe, I don't know the math) push him below 50%+1, requiring a runoff.

Thanks, I gave the math a go, not sure if its right:

-3,886,414 total votes cast in GA
-1,887,161 for Abrams
-50.5% of votes for Kemp

1,887,161 + 21,600 <---(possible outstanding she's referring to)= 1,908,761

1,908,761/3,886,414= 49.11%

49.11%-48.6%(Abrams current percentage) = .51%

Take .51% away from Kemp's 50.5% and it puts him at 49.99%. Not sure if they round up.

So I think it's somewhere around 21,600 votes that would need to be in favor of someone other than Kemp.
