Kemp only won by 55,000 votes. Is Georgia seriously that close to turning blue? I remember in the 2016 election thinking how weird it was that Florida was called for Trump before Georgia was.

Kemp was viewed as a dolt (especially as Secretary of State) and a lot of outside money poured in to support Abrams.

Not with trump on the ticket but Georgia is purple.

Kemp, the Kemp before he became somewhat of a good household name, wasn’t really liked in his previous role.

Atlanta is super super blue but growing just like nashville and Charlotte which is single handedly turning it purple/blue.

DeSantis also barely won in Florida.

Now both of these governors have like 60% approval and have been great GOP leaders. It’s quite the turnaround honestly.

Both will easily win re-election barring some scandal.

Trump will win Georgia by 5 points again. Even with a black VP. If Bottoms is VP he wins by 2-3.

GA is getting dangerously purple but I think it’s going back stronger red based on kemp’s performance. The issue is shite bag libs fleeing from Illinois could frick us

Dude every piece of leftist fat lipped filth are now moving into that city called thrasherville. Even the blue-Jews in Briarwood and Dunwoody are getting freaked out.

Georgia will fall prey to the unwashed mob, parts will resist and become isolated but unless something an intangible possibly plays its hand the mindless orbs like Abrams will eventually cancel the good out.

Metro Atlanta, Savannah, and Richmond County are all blue.

Alright without revealing to much information about myself I did a lot of political work for Republicans in Georgia during the 2017-18 election cycle. I had access to all voter data and a lot of donor reports for Republicans during this cycle. If you have a question for me fire away and to answer the OP, yes Georgia is dangerously close to turning blue.
