Voter turnout in the Georgia runoffs is currently on pace to rival the turnout from back in November, which likely benefits the Democrats. Although it sounds like voters from both parties are energized, so who knows how this whole thing will turn out. The Dems retaking the Senate would be huge.
It's been widely reported that some of the MAGA cult are planning on boycotting the election and staying home. It'll be interesting to see if that ends up hurting the GOP's chances. McConnell's acknowledgement of Biden's win has certainly pissed off a large portion of the GOP base.

State data published on Friday showed the number of accepted ballots was just below the level seen at the same point in early voting for November’s election.
