Georgia 2024 live election results: Trump projected to win

It was the second swing state to be called for Trump.

Former President Donald Trump is projected by ABC News to win Georgia over Vice President Kamala Harris.

Georgia is considered a key battleground this year in the presidential election after it went blue for the first time in decades in 2020.

Trump will net the state's 16 electoral votes.

State significance

Trump challenged the 2020 results, but a first-ever risk-limiting audit, which entailed counties recounting by hand every vote cast, reaffirmed Biden's victory. The former president is now facing eight criminal counts in Georgia over his alleged efforts to overturn his loss there.

Late Tuesday night, Republican Georgia Secretary of State Brad Raffensperger said at a press conference that "Donald Trump has an insurmountable lead with the number of votes outstanding."

"It looks like this is pretty much done," he said. "I think the results are pretty well baked in."

In the House races, Democrat Lucy McBath won in her quest for a fourth term, Republican Marjorie Taylor Greene won reelection and a former Trump aide, Brian Jack, won in his first race for a congressional seat.

The state also helped Democrats gain control of the U.S. Senate by winning both runoff elections in 2020. This year, however, Georgia doesn't have any Senate races.

Counties are colored red or blue when the % expected vote reporting reaches a set threshold. This threshold varies by state and is based on patterns of past vote reporting and expectations about how the vote will report this year.
