Good morning! Today we’re covering record-breaking turnout in Georgia, an alarming survey of how Americans feel compared to four years ago, and a special showcase by Shen Yun.

Record Breaking Turnout More than 1 million people have voted in the battleground state of Georgia in the first four days of early voting.
“We crossed the 1,000,000 voter mark at around 11:50 a.m. Amazing turnout! So happy for the counties and the voters! Let’s keep it going,” Gabriel Sterling, the chief operating officer for the Secretary of State’s office said in an Oct. 18 post on social media.
Several days prior, Sterling said that the pace of early voting in Georgia was breaking records and on Thursday stated that “massive” voter turnout put the state on pace to surpass the 1 million early votes cast mark on Friday. Nearly 1.2 million early ballots had been accepted as of Friday evening. Read the full story here›

Worse Off More than half of Americans feel worse off financially than they did four years ago, according to a survey released on Friday.
The survey, released on Oct. 18, found that 52 percent of U.S. adults believe their financial situation has deteriorated since 2020, while 39 percent feel they are better off. A similar Gallup poll taken at the tail end of the Trump presidency in September 2020 found this sentiment roughly reversed, with 56 percent saying they were better off and 33 percent saying they were worse off than four years prior.
Partisan divides were stark in the latest poll, with 90 percent of Republicans feeling worse off, compared to just 16 percent of Democrats. Crucially, 55 percent of Independents, a pivotal voting bloc in the close 2024 presidential race, feel worse off, with 35 percent saying their financial situation has improved.

Blending timeless classics with fresh originals, this gospel quartet invites us to remember the beauty, resilience, and joy that music can inspire.

In “Live in Memphis,” Haase’s passion for music and unwavering faith shine through, offering audiences a deeply personal, spiritual experience.
The making of the album is quite a story, including Haase’s journey, his decision to record live despite a bout with bronchitis, and the emotional moments shared with friends like Duane Allen from the Oak Ridge Boys.
