Joe Biden was announced the projected winner of the state of Georgia on Friday, Nov. 13. Leading by 0.3 percent in the state, the win pushed Biden to 306 electoral votes, leaving President Donald Trump with 232. Biden is the first Democratic nominee to win Georgia in 28 years after Bill Clinton last did so in 1992.

“I think we were all really surprised. I feel like it’s kind of an assumption that southern states are normally red. … When Georgia flipped [blue], I was kind of like, ‘Is it real? What's going on?’,” Syd Williams ’23, who was involved with MHC Votes!, said. “I’m happy, but I feel like there is still so much that is in the air.”
