ATLANTA —When asked Tuesday whom she was casting a ballot for in the Georgia runoff, Julie Milum replied, "Trump."
“Well, you know what I mean,” said Milum, 50, who voted at a polling station in Marietta, a fast-diversifying suburb northwest of Atlanta.
Across the city, 18-year-old Ashley Jones cast the first ballot of her life in an election that will determine control of Congress and the direction of the country.
But her enthusiasm was dampened by President Trump’s continued efforts to subvert the results of the November election, including his false claims that he won Georgia. It gave Jones a sense of foreboding about what may become of her own votes for Democrats Raphael Warnock and Jon Ossoff.
