in GA
Biden won independents in Georgia in 2020

I think that’s what the OP is referring to

And by these kinds I mean ones that don't tell us anything beyond you're upset with Georgia. Not all of us are watching/listening to the same shows so if you have more info, share it.

Otherwise, it's useless to anyone who doesn't already know exactly what you're talking about.

We're not all watching the same networks or sites.

He's a long term DUer from New Zealand. I'm not sure why they're seeing what they're seeing in Georgia as it's too early yet.

It may not be the same batch of voters are 2020. I don't think you can look much at that swing and believe that it's real movement or just changes in who is saying they are indy vs not.

People don't register with a party when they vote/register to vote in Georgia, so these are self-identified "Independents." How many of them are already inclined toward the Republicans but don't want to admit their true political leanings to a pollster?

exit polls change as the night goes on too.

They are limited as to which exit poll information they can release until all polls are closed.

It's insulting to DUer's from the state and it's far too early to write it off. Kamala could still win it.
