From CNN:
Gwinnett County spokesperson Joe Sorenson said they probably will continue counting ballots through Thursday.
The “adjudication teams” are scheduled to arrive that day, to deal with challenged ballots. Officials don’t expect many to need adjudication, it will hold up the process.
Gwinnett County is located in the Atlanta suburbs, a Democratic stronghold.
Right now, poll managers are checking in with their actual ballots and electronic ballots.
The electronic ballots will then be run through a machine in the back room. He said they will probably convene the election board to call it a night at some point later tonight, knowing that there will still be work to do in the coming days.
Keep in mind that military/overseas ballots have until the end of the day Friday to arrive and get counted.
Fulton County, which includes most of the city of Atlanta, should be able to process the vast majority of its ballots on Tuesday night, according to county elections director Richard Barron.
“We are on track with processing. We should be able to process almost all, if not all, ballots tonight,” Barron told reporters Tuesday.
Barron said more people voted in-person today in the county than on Election Day for the general election in November. He said about 60,000 voted in-person that day, whereas he said he believed about 70,000 voted Tuesday, though he called that number a “rough estimate.”
Barron said the county has received about 108,000 absentee ballots and has scanned about 100,500 of those ballots already. “We will upload more absentee-by-mail results later.”

I can't look. There was one Republican and one Democrat winner in November, wonder if that will remain.
I expect weeks of recounts 🙄

MMSNBC showing 68% of vote in and both Democrats trailing. Oh God, this is torturous.

I'm feeling quite hopeful. Some big Democratic counties have a lot left to report.

and, the mail in/dropped off, absentee ballots will likely be "dumped" counted after!

I am not as hopeful as the numbers now say.
Current NY Times results have both Loeffler and Purdue barely winning (87% reporting).

CNN is incorrectly reporting DeKalb remaining votes as 130,000 which is not enough for Dems to win.
GA SOS office says it’s 171,000+ votes which could be enough votes.

And if by chance the Democrats pull a win will the Republicans accept the outcome. Of course not!

NYT -
What’s happening now:
29m ago
Republicans continue to hold a narrow lead in the tabulated vote, but Democrats are increasingly clear favorites to win both races for Senate. Over the last hour, Republicans have failed to outperform expectations in relatively Republican areas, leaving them at the mercy of the overwhelmingly Democratic votes that remain in the Atlanta area. To prevail, the Republicans will have to outperform our expectations in these remaining votes by a significant margin, and in the case of Kelly Loeffler an implausible margin. They haven't outperformed our expectations much of anywhere tonight.
