re: For the "Georgia is a blue state in the realm of CA, NY, IL" crowd, quick question...

Georgia isn't a blue state. It's a right-of-center state that hates Trump and his hand-picked candidates. Last year, Buck Sexton and Clay Travis had an hour-long segment where they took calls from Georgia voters and they got call after call from people who said they know several people who voted for every Republican on the ballot in 2022 except Walker. These people are Republicans but didn't like that Walker was Trump's boy and are sick of Trump's schtick. Walker was the only state-wide Republican who lost in 2022. In 2020 there were over 150k people who voted for at least 1 Republican on the ballot but not Trump, and after Trump injected himself into the runoff and surrounding himself with the Kraken BS, Independents who typically vote Republican stayed home or voted for Warnock and Ossoff, as they essentially saw Trump being on the ballot.

And I'll say it one more time...if Georgia is a blue state, then why the frick wasn't the whale elected governor?
