Georgia's political dynamics aren't as hard to figure out as people make them out to be. Some major points:
1. It's a Deep South state 2. Political preferences for whites and Blacks are highly polarized by race 3. But whites are less polarized than in MS and AL, thanks to ATL.
So while an average GOP candidate in Georgia can expect about 70% of the white vote, the average GOP candidate in MS can expect 90%, and AL somewhere around 82%.

So to continue on my discussion of rural African American-majority counties, here's a comparison of Trump's map of Georgia from 2020 and Raffensperger's map this year.
Raffensperger won every rural county that was less than 59% African American except for Talbot, Taliaferro, and Stewart, the last of which is 66% non-white due to a large Hispanic population.
He also won Terrell, Randolph, and Warren, which are all 60% or more African American.

I have been analyzing the results from a number of Georgia Counties from the #2020elections. This began once I started realizing that the counties that gave David Perdue more votes than Donald Trump was hardly a random distribution. #electiontwitter
So, in order to understand how David Perdue got more votes than Trump all happened without digging into the HUGE metro Atlanta counties, I compiled a list to research.
