Good morning from Emerson, Georgia. Like in the rest of the state, Election Day voting in the double Senate runoff election began at 7 AM and goes till 7 PM. 
Here is the Georgia sample ballot, this one from Bartow County.
I can confirm that there are indeed a lot of adverts about this election on TV in Georgia.
Spoke to a Republican poll watcher here in Emerson who has not seen anything untoward so far. He said he came in early this morning because the other three poll watchers (from both parties) had not turned up.
A lady who just voted here in Emerson told me she was a Libertarian but voted for the Republicans in the Senate runoff election, to keep a certain balance in power with the House and the White House already in Democratic hands.
Suffice to say she does not think Trump won in November.
In more rural Georgia, masks are not exactly commonplace. Even in the local polling station I am at, the use of face masks inside the building is not mandatory. About 95% of voters I have seen inside the Emerson polling station did wear one, though.
Next stop: Euharlee City Hall. Masks provided, if requested. An average of around 100 voters per hour since 7 AM. The Republican poll watcher told me it’s all going smoothly but that “it’s a pity about all the illegal stuff” that supposedly happened in November.
Taylorsville, the smallest of the precincts I have visited today. As in all others, turnout is high and everything is going smoothly.
Atlanta. And an @ossoff campaign bus in the wild.
Yes, it’s in the far left lane.
