Republicans Face a Dogfight in Georgia
Four years ago, Donald Trump defeated Hillary Clinton in Georgia by about five points, or a little less than 12,000 votes. Though it wasn’t considered a battleground during that race, Trump had won the state by a far smaller margin than Mitt Romney, who in 2012 defeated Barack Obama there by eight points, or more than 300,000 votes.
This year, many election watchers have decided that something serious has shifted and Georgia now might be a swing state, despite the fact that it hasn’t gone for a Democrat in a presidential race since 1992, when Bill Clinton defeated President George H. W. Bush by under five points.
While the Cook Political Report still rates the Georgia presidential race as leaning Republican, the University of Virginia’s Center for Politics sees it as a tossup, and FiveThirtyEight’s model has Biden as a slight favorite. The RealClearPolitics polling average agrees, placing Biden ahead by less than half a percentage point. According to the site’s poll tracking, Trump enjoyed a steady three-point lead over Biden throughout the summer, but that advantage dwindled heading into the fall before Biden overtook the president this month.
Georgia also plays host to two Senate races this cycle, both of which have incumbent Republicans on defense.
