vcczar Posted December 24, 2023 Share Posted December 24, 2023 Here's GA. This is a rapidly transforming state as Atlanta is beginning to resemble more of a Mid-Atlantic or Northeast City than a Southern City. Look at all the blue in these key countries compared to 2000 or even during Obama's elections. Clinton performed here reasonably well, so you can tell the state mostly dislikes Trump. I think Haley and DeSantis could easily win GA. This said, I could see Biden losing the state barely. It's going to be hard for him to replicate the same turnout and still barely win. The most hopeful aspect is that Atlanta and it's suburbs are growing, so Biden could feasibly underperform in some of these places and win again if he maintains as strong or stronger turnout in Atlanta and the suburbs.

pilight Posted December 25, 2023 Share Posted December 25, 2023 Augusta is in Richmond County Columbus is in Muscogee County Macon is in Bibb County All those counties are more populous than Fayette or Lowndes or Baldwin. Baldwin County is barely in the top 50 most populous in Georgia. https://www.georgia-demographics.com/counties_by_population or https://www.legis.ga.gov/api/document/docs/default-source/reapportionment-document-library/2020-count-by-county-population--with-2010.pdf?sfvrsn=cbc99191_2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
