GA 8 and 12: Mixed Bag
Good news for Dems in Georgia's 8th District: Democrat Jim Marshall leads Republican Mac Collins by a margin of over 5%--52.7% to 47.3%.
Different story in the 12th, however, where a feather could change the balance of this race: Republican Max Burns leads Democrat John Barrow by a nerve-wracking 0.2%: 51.1% to 49.9%.
In both districts, about 12% reporting.
UPDATE (6:05 p.m): Burns' lead has "blossomed" to 0.8% in the 12th. In the 8th, the race has flipped 52.1 to 47.9 in favor of Collins. Mea culpa: I may have read the early results wrong in the first place, but this update is indeed correct.
