Georgia has been one of a handful of states at the center of everyone’s attention over the few days during the election.
State Farm Arena was part of that. The Hawks’ home arena served as a polling place for citizens in Atlanta to get out their vote on election day with lots of poll workers helping them cast their ballots.
We already knew how important their jobs were, but with how close the state of Georgia is and how much Atlanta has mattered in the race it’s more apparent than ever. These people did some tremendous work.
And as a thank you, Atlanta Hawks All-Star Trae Young bought the poll workers at the arena boxed lunches from Jason’s Deli.
