Georgia’s Senators Chambliss and Isakson just voted to allow the Senate’s gun registration and infringment bill to the Senate floor.

Aren’t they representative of Georgian peoples politics, too?

Unfortunately to a certain extent you are correct. The liberal to conservative thought process isn't a strict dichotomy, but a sliding scale. If you rank GA senators on a scale ranging from liberal to conservative they would hit somewhere in the middle. The NY Senators and Reps go about as far to the left as the scale goes. If you look at the GA house reps, the black democratic gerrymandered districts are about as far to the liberal end of the scale as you can get. But we actually have a majority who could be considered conservative.

We have a crop of home grown (city) and imported from the northeast liberals here who account for the less than perfect score. In particular, GA has suffered in the last two decades from and influx of people from places like NY, NJ, MA, etc. who moved here because of the available jobs. What they immediately started doing upon arrival is trying to make GA just like the places they moved to get away from. Or to put it another way. they sh!t where they ate and had to move and promptly started sh!tting where they ate again
