What do we have from today? Well, Democrats probably added about 8K votes to their margin, per @joe__gantt's estimates. That's not as much as they'd have been hoping for, to be blunt.

In the general election, for example, our estimate was that Biden won the first two days of early voting, three of the four weekend days, and Trump won basically every other day of early voting pic.twitter.com/9JID24eq3I

But if they GOP get a surge of voters in their areas, it's a coin flip again. Next week should tell us a lot more.
No, I'm not that stunned given that only 3 counties were open (Gwinnett/Fulton the only populous ones).
Yes, I still have it at leans Democrat -- a low-turnout weekend day where I didn't expect any votes doesn't change it.
Update dropping in 10. I've got to say: real folks to thank here are @joe__gantt, @ADincgor, @dooraven, and @thunderousprof for their help fetching and analyzing data and voting locations. Drop them a follow if you can.

I think a plausible explanation is that whatever Corbyn says or does, his critics will denounce - no matter how much hypocrisy it necessitates.
Corbyn opposes the exploitation of foreign sweatshop-workers - Labour MPs complain he's like Nigel
He speaks up in defence of migrants - Labour MPs whinge that he's not listening to the public's very real concerns about immigration:
He's wrong to prioritise Labour Party members over the public:

One of the oddest features of the Labour tax row is how raising allowances, which the media allowed the LDs to describe as progressive (in spite of evidence to contrary) through the coalition years, is now seen by everyone as very right wing
