In the aftermath of the 2016 presidential election, we now know exactly who voted in Georgia.

A new release of data by the state has for the first time given us a complete snapshot of Georgia's electorate this year. And now we also know that whites still dominate the ballot box, despite representing a shrinking share of registered voters.

That's just one finding from our analysis of the data — which shows while Georgia's presidential election was closer this year, there was a distinct pattern of who showed up at the polls.

See the whole analysis and find interactive maps, including county-by-county data, online at myajc.com or specials.myajc.com/georgia-voters-results-2016.
