All eyes turn to Coke and Home Depot.

Here we go — big expansion plans in SWATL means you can’t stay silent:

*MICROSOFT TO PRESS GEORGIA LEGISLATURE TO CHANGE ELECTION LAW

Seeing some skepticism to this thread based on the long-running relationship between business and the GA GOP. This is a part of the shift of GA turning blue, suburban and college-educated voters turning blue, the GOP’s evolution under Trump, and corporate America’s shift on race.

In Georgia at least, 2018 is gone. There’s no going back to 2018, even if organizations like @atlchamber wish we could go back there.

Coca-Cola CEO on CNBC saying the Georgia legislation is unacceptable and a step backwards. “It’s wrong and needs to be remedied.”

This time is different, folks. Get ready for the marriage of Stacey Abrams and corporate Atlanta as a new metro/statewide “Atlanta Way.”

Is corporate Atlanta going to throw its lot in with Abrams, Ossoff, and Warnock or Marjorie Taylor Greene, David Shafer, Vernon Jones, Jody Hice, and whatever other B-team candidates the GA GOP puts up in 2022? The choice is clear.
