My husband & I moved to Georgia in 2013. We purposely chose our county because it was one of the most conservative counties (bright red) in the country. It also has excellent schools & is within commutable distance of Atlanta. When companies relocated to Atlanta due to Georgia’s friendly business environment, they moved their executives here - and those executives (or their spouses) chose to move to my county due to the excellent schools. Now, they are a strident voice on all my county’s social media sites and they’ve got a formidable ground game. I expect we’re going to flip either this year or in following election cycle. Demographics are the future, and our success is also our doom.
Go to a Walmart in Savannah. You will see nothing different than any other similar sized city elsewhere in the country. Go to any small town in GA and you will see foreign nationals of dubious legal status.
“The South” is gone by and large due to blue state migration and immigration. Georgia is now 10% Hispanic. We’re now onto 2nd generation Hispanic adults in places like Atlanta and Nashville, too.
It was a historical anomaly that the electoral college and popular vote were not in agreement in 2016. The only question is when they go back in alignment in favor of Democrats: 2020, 2024, or after.
