Harris swoops into Atlanta with Democrats saying she has put Georgia ‘in play’

Harris swoops into Atlanta with Democrats saying she has put Georgia ‘in play’

As Vice President Kamala Harris embarks on her second week on the campaign trail, she is set to visit a battleground state President Joe Biden may have lost in his campaign: Georgia.

According to a Hill/Emerson College poll, Harris is polling just 2 points below former President Donald Trump, with Harris gaining 46% to Trump’s 48%. In 2020, Biden narrowly flipped the state blue by a little more than 11,000 votes and marked the first time Georgia voted for a Democrat for president since 1992.

“I have not seen this much excitement amongst the Democratic base and Democratic coalition since Barack Obama,” Tharon Johnson, an Atlanta-based political strategist who has worked for Democratic candidates in the state, told the Wall Street Journal. “This is the most excitement we’ve felt in Georgia over the last decade.”

Harris is set to campaign in Atlanta on Tuesday, where she will be accompanied by Sens. Raphael Warnock (D-GA) and Jon Ossoff (D-GA) and two-time Democratic gubernatorial candidate Stacey Abrams. There will also be a performance from rapper Megan Thee Stallion.

The news comes as the Harris campaign announced it broke records and raised more than $200 million in the first week of the campaign.

If Georgia Republicans insist on the law being followed, then Trump should have no problem winning Georgia.

Exactly. The Republicans need observers and attorneys at the ready.

Like it or not, Georgia is "turning".

Looking at a chart of the state's current demographics.

Whites in GA are down to just over 53%.
Blacks are at 32%.
Hispanics at 10.5%
Asians at a little over 5%.

That's "47%+ minority" -- i.e., NONWHITE votes.
And we know "which way most of them go".

Factor in the amount of liberal and dem-communist whites, and the possible margin of victory...
...well, it ain't so great any more.

I invite refutation from anyone in the forum who IS in Georgia.

But demographics are just numbers.
You can't argue much with the numbers...
They are what they are.

If only they were as white as Vermont.  Oh, wait .  .  .

Poor Stacy Abrams.  Dems never give her credit for her grass roots efforts that made Georgia a purple state.  If only Abrams could raise as much money as Jamie Harrison, she'd be DNC Chair.

DNC loves money more than it loves votes, voters, America, Americans, and DEI.

Kamala Harris is about to speak to 10,000 people in Georgia and the Trump campaign is busy denouncing Project 2025 for the umpteenth time.

Get it together. The stakes are too high for this amateur-hour stuff.

VP Harris holds rally in crucial battleground state days before Trump at same venue
Harris' Atlanta rally is another sign of energy, excitement among Dems after Biden ended 2024 bid
 By Paul Steinhauser , Mark Meredith Fox News

ATLANTA — When Vice President Harris headlines a rally Tuesday evening in battleground Georgia's capital and largest city, she'll stand in front of the largest crowd this cycle for the Democratic Party's national ticket.

Hours before the vice president arrived in Atlanta, the Georgia State Convocation Center, which has a listed capacity of 8,000 people for concerts, was filling up with supporters.

It's another sign of the energy and excitement that's returning to the party nine days after President Biden's blockbuster announcement that he was suspending his re-election campaign against former President Trump and endorsing his vice president.



Biden's immediate backing of Harris ignited a surge of endorsements for the vice president by Democrat governors, senators, House members and other party leaders and elders. Within 36 hours, Harris announced that she had locked up her party's nomination by landing the verbal backing of a majority of the nearly 4,000 convention delegates.

"Freedom is on the ballot this November. That is why I will be in Atlanta tonight with @theestallion to talk about the stakes of this election," the vice president wrote in a social media post on her way to Atlanta.

Rapper Megan Thee Stallion is expected to perform at the rally, which received nearly 20,000 RSPVs ahead of the event.

Kamala Harris just dropped $50 million on attack ads in the swing states and is about to get a rush of positive press from Georgia.

What are Republicans focused on? Defending cat lady comments, disowning Project 2025, and Willie Brown.

Something has to change.

If that weren't likely, I'd be laughing at the thought.

I have little interest in streamlining government or in making it more efficient, for I mean to reduce its size. I do not undertake to promote welfare, for I propose to extend freedom. My aim is not to pass laws, but to repeal them.
