ATLANTA — How Georgia Democrats fare in next month's election could depend on whether black voters show up to the polls. Observers say turnout will be especially key among African-Americans, who turned out in record numbers two years ago across the country to elect President Barack Obama. Obama's absence on the ballot, combined with an overall lack of interest in the midterm vote, will likely mean waning black support this year for Democratic candidates.
Dems count on black turnout in Nov.
