“That’s my point- didn’t mitt win it big? Seems like georgia is going dem or at least central now-”
In statewide races, Georgia is still reliably Republican. The congressional districts have been gerrymandered so that the Republicans usually win ten House seats and (black) Democrats win four. The majority of voters in the 6th district are relatively affluent, well-educated whites, a group that didn’t vote big for Trump. So, I wouldn’t read too much into how Trump fared in that district. Most local pundits think that Handel will win the runoff election, assuming that both conservatives and establishment Republicans come out to vote.
let’s hope you’re right- all the other southern states practically went for trump 60% or better- georgia was one that was only 50% to dems 46% for hillary- NC was also close- though they have been trending more democrat in recent years- I just hope Georgia isn’t following suit-
