AP has Trump's lead in Georgia down to 32,858. The less optimistic news is that they've used up almost all of the outstanding vote in Dekalb County, which was the best county for Biden in the state (lots of people and 80% of them for Biden). That was at 89% earlier, and is now 97% in according to the NYT. The best Biden state with significant votes outstanding is Clayton county, which is a strong Biden area but has fewer people than Fulton or Dekalb. That one has maybe 15,000 votes outstanding. There are other pro-Biden areas with votes outstanding, but they're much closer - +24, +1, +37, +17.
There are also a number of heavy Trump areas with absentee votes outstanding. They are less populous, but they could be enough to just keep pushing his lead slightly out of reach, such that GA runs out of votes to count before Biden catches up.
I still think it's trending towards a sub-10k win for someone but it's really impossible to tell who at this point. I don't think it makes sense to say either guy is favoured.
