Atlanta Mayoral Race Live Blog (UPDATE Reed certified as victor; Norwood wants recount)

Tonight is the mayoral election runoff for the city of Atlanta. Please feel free to post results below in the comments section and how you feel the night is going.

I found an excellent website for the results from the Fulton County board of elections. In case you're wondering I consider Reed to be the better candidate in this nonpartisan race because he was an excellent Democratic state senator and he got the endorsement from many top Democrats in the state like Former Governor Roy Barnes, 2008 US Senate Candidate Jim Martin and others.

As of 9:33 with 33 percent reporting:

Reed at 56.24%

Norwood at 43.76%

 Please feel free to update results for any other race in GA you see as well.

UPDATE: Getting tighter

As of 9:57

Reed at 53.88%

Norwood at 46.12%

UPDATE: Reed declares victory with 50.46 percent of the vote. He's just below the 1 point margin of victory needed to avoid a runoff so it's unclear if this is over completely but it looks like Reed has won it.

 UPDATE (12/05): Reed today was certified as the winner in the runoff but because his lead is less than 1 percent Norwood is allowed the option of a recount which she is requesting.
