      Georgia helped Biden win in 2020. Trump specifically asked Georgian officials to break the law to help him win in one of his many “perfect phone calls.” They refused and the citizens rebuked Trump’s attempt. That state is very much in play for Democrats (at least for POTUS EC votes) if they can control some of the meddling.

        Even if they did give him Georgia he still would’ve lost.

        I’m not advocating against taking this very seriously, I just think that’s a funny fact.

        I am sheltered in a very blue state and clearly have no idea what’s going on. Appreciate you explaining it to me, always figured Georgia was some bible belt red state. I need to take a trip some time.

      TFG realistically can’t win without Georgia. Almost all of his paths to victory center around the state.
