There are still 29,000 mail-in ballots left to be counted in Fulton County, Georgia, said Richard Barron, the county's elections director. “We’re going to make sure every vote is counted tonight and we’ll do what it takes to stay all night,” Barron told CNN’s Gary Tuchman at counting location in Atlanta, Georgia. Barron also told Tuchman that the Fulton County election website would be updated with the ballot counts between 12:00am eastern time and 3:00am“We know that everyone’s looking at us, looking at Georgia, and it could determine the next president,” Barron said. "My staff has been working long hours for many months, since before the June election.”
