Very narrow, but heavily populated.

few brain-washed "millennials" away from becoming California.

We have three formerly great universities doing their damnedest to brain wash them too.

Hamilton county Indiana turned from bright red two years ago to very pale pink yesterday. Not a good sign.

The republicans here in Georgia need a better advertising and messaging campaign. Their ads and branding were awful.

That certainly appears to be the case.

As it is, less than 20% of its 159 counties appears to have come very close to electing a candidate openly endorsed by the DSA and CPUSA.

The question then, at least for me, would be how efficient is it to spend precious campaign/advertising dollars in those core (substantially contiguous) counties. In any event, the R's need to find charismatic representatives from those counties/areas in order to make a change.

Former Red County strongholds like Gwinnett, Douglas, Cobb, Newton and Henry have become liberal cesspools with urbanization.

GA is literally purple right now IMHO if you count total #’s.

This is standard proceedure now.

This illustrates why we should have armed Marine guards on duty when votes are counted.

The Democrats are so racist in their voting that they will totally ignore lack of incompetence and lack of integrity when they cast their ballot. How else can you explain Stacey Abrams in GA and Gillum in FL. Because Beto lost in Texas, but made a race out of it by voter fraud, he is now a potential 2020 Democrat presidential candidate. The Democrat is a magnet for the insane. We conservatives can take heart in the fact that all the money the Dems pooped on this election can never be spent again on another one.

Our founding fathers never envisioned that idiots would ever be allowed to vote.

("Perhaps along with an Electoral College formula applied at the state level?")

Too late for that.

You seem confident, so let me ask if you have knowledge about the voting process for such a proposal?

Would it be in the form of an amendment to the state constitution? I.e., would it turn on a popular vote? Or, state legislators, etc?

It looks like Handel will lose to the Democrat this time around (she beat Ossoff last time).

Where is the evidence of probable voter fraud? I don’t doubt it, but I missed hearing this.

No liberal, in the legislature or otherwise, who is confident with their blue/liberal voting majority, would ever propose electoral-college-type-voting amendments in their areas. So, while you may think it’s a good idea overall, it’s not a good idea for the liberals who consider the popular vote their ace in the hole.

Unconstitutional per the USSC 1964 ‘One Man, One Vote’ ruling.

She was a horrible candidate then and now. She lucked out that Paul Ryan’s body double was worse

No liberal, in the legislature or otherwise...

That is clear, but my question to you was whether it could be implemented by something other than a popular vote.

Nonetheless, we just saw a popular vote for an R governor. The leaders in those 70% of the outlying Georgia Counties that voted for Kemp might make every effort to deprive the Atlanta area of its dominant political power.
