I've updated this to make it a little easier to use. Find your precinct more readily by typing in your address! (we don't store it.) #gapol https://t.co/htnuDUnjC8

@CypressMoss Hi there, we accessed the data via the Secretary of State's website. You can click through to find it by precinct, or download their JSON file at https://t.co/XODPp83ZEv

That's something we could definitely take a look at too.

We dug into the data about SNAP benefits that are set to end on Saturday in Georgia. 1 in 8 Georgians get these benefits. Half a million of these folks work, and on average each person gets $6 per day for food https://t.co/ROy1ikErr3

Early voting begins tomorrow in Georgia. If you live in Atlanta, you might have a new City Council district. Check out our @ajc.com maps by typing in your address: https://t.co/Hsrh02QHJA #gapol

At least we can listen to the original version of “Love Story” on Taylor Swift Engagement Announcement Day. 😆 https://t.co/P7AyU3xNVS

[Charles Minshew @charlesminshew]

When does the new @taylorswift13 album come out?

You can now search which candidates, committees and campaigns received donations from Brant Frost IV, his family and companies over the past two decades. We've included donations in at least 38 states. #gapol https://t.co/Tf5CIg1OrZ

[Charles Minshew @charlesminshew]

We found nearly 1,000 contributions in 38 states since 2002, with $1.1 millions going to candidates and committees since 2021. https://t.co/MHg3R7TJuh

[Greg Bluestein @bluestein]

The Frost family used nearly $1.4 million in campaign contributions, much of it allegedly swindled from investors, to build political clout in Georgia and across the nation over the past two decades, an @ajc analysis shows. #gapol

If you need to get in touch with me in Georgia, or just want to add me to your Signal group chats with sensitive government discussions you can do so!

Agh typos, but I’m not paying to edit.

[Charles Minshew @charlesminshew]

I’m in my favorite #NICAR25 session. Not only are they playing Taylor Swift and using her song as as data, I’m learning how to write better R code.

[Charles Minshew @charlesminshew]

I can't think of anyone better than Amy Simons to earn this honor. I'm the journalist I am today in part because of her mentorship and leadership. Today, I am also fortunate to still call her a mentor and most of all, a friend.

[Mizzou @Mizzou]

It's time to honor #Mizzou's 2025 Kemper Fellows.

Our first 2025 William T. Kemper Fellow: Amy Simons from the @mujschool!

Join the Mizzou community and @CommerceBank in congratulating Amy.

Mapping is a powerful tool to find patterns in data. At #NICAR25, learn how to make your own maps using the open-source tool QGIS.

We have beginner level classes, including a pre-reg workshop with @j_la28 and @charlesminshew if you want to dive deeper! https://t.co/QWruOh8pdg

I felt the enormity of what Jimmy Carter meant to the world when I walked up to his casket today at the Carter Center, and experiencing his life through the museum exhibit was a special experience today https://t.co/KRI4UaN61a

[Charles Minshew @charlesminshew]

"His greatest accomplishment wasn’t being president of the United States. It was what he did afterward."

A remembrance and story of Jimmy Carter, a remarkable man who was also the country's 39th President, from the @ajc

[mike luckovich @mluckovichajc]

I kept changing my mind which Jimmy Carter cartoon i should go with. Here's all three.

[Charles Minshew @charlesminshew]

As an aside... we look at all registered voters, not just those that are inactive, in most cases. For example, more than 55,000 folks who were "inactive" at the end of voter registration in October, cast a ballot pre-Election Day.

[Charles Minshew @charlesminshew]

Polls in Georgia open at 7 am. Here's what we know about the more than 4 million registered (not just active!) voters who can cast a ballot today. In short, counties that voted for Biden in 2020 have more voters up for grabs (but its close) #gapol https://t.co/PW1BMd1UhL
