27. The "state (wide) level" brought about the 2 Democratic Senators
Thu Jul 27, 2023, 12:55 PM
Jul 2023

in 2 state-wide races, which were the result of run-offs.

Point being that the "fire is lit" and it's a matter of getting people to vote in EVERY election, not just every 2 years or every 4 years so they can ungerrymander the state.

The thing about GA is that there are a pile of "northern transplants" down there (including some of my close relatives for some reason, and some former coworkers). So there has been some shift there like NC saw (although NC seems to need to kick it back in gear again), and the end result over time could eventually be similar to what has happened in Virginia.
