***"Katy, bar the door!"*** AJC poll: Hillary Clinton has slim lead over Donald Trump in Georgia !!!

[DemocratSinceBirth]

Democrat Hillary Clinton has built a slim lead over Donald Trump in Georgia after one of the worst weeks of the Republican’s campaign, according to a new Atlanta Journal-Constitution poll.

The poll released Friday shows Clinton at 44 percent and Trump at 40 percent, within the poll’s margin of error. It is the latest showing a close race between the two candidates in Georgia, a state that has voted for the GOP nominee since 1996.

1. The demographics of the country

are changing. This is what Trump supporters are actually angry about. They can't accept the changing world.

18. +1

2. K and R.

3. Less than 100 days from the election, the Republican nominee is polling at 40% in Georgia nt

4. Well we just might find out if the

voting machines in Georgia really ARE rigged for the GOP.

5. Unless the riggers have turned on Rump too.

9. How do you figure?

Hillary leads in 2, Trump leads in 2, and the other is a tie.

12. I want to see a poll for Texas!

Last poll was June 10-20. Lots has happened since then. The Republican Convention. Ted Cruz. The Democratic Convention. Mr. Trump vs. Mr Khan.

13. Virginia, Colorado, Nevada, New Hampshire

there were several solid red states that became purple or blue in recent times. America is changing. People move. People are more diverse than before, especially in younger generations.

And more of the types of people who would vote for Democrats are becoming US citizens, turning 18, and registering to vote all the time. It's unstoppable. Trump's supporters can't handle diversity.

We need Trump and the GOP to lose so badly this year that they must cease to operate in the shameful hateful way they have been. Their party needs to completely rethink their platform, policies, and messaging if they even hope to survive in the more diverse and liberal America.

16. I moved to Colorado in 1984

and, except for Denver, Boulder and Pueblo, it was pretty red. Even passed the horrendous, and unconstitutional Amendment 2 in the bad old 80's when friends were dying. We've come a long way, but we still have a few of the craziest Congress critters.. most are just crazy, but some are slick and dangerous. Look for Cory Gardner to be pushed as the "new GOP" voice of reason. He's not, of course, but he's pretty and says all the "right" things.

14. BEST NEWS EVER/nt

[groundloop]

15. It's gonna be a long road to a blue Georgia, we still have voter suppression laws to overcome

We have voter ID laws, no same-day voter registration (last day to register is Oct. 11), early voting has been cut back, and more than likely there will mysteriously be a shortage of voting machines in traditionally blue districts. Still, it's telling that Hillary is essentially even with tRump right now, hatred of the name Clinton runs deep here. I'm keeping my fingers crossed.

17. Turn 'em all Blue I say

This is great news. How to trump Trump -- turn ALL the states BLUE. We need to suck all the hot air out of him.

[Politicub]

19. Woop woop!

Fellow Georgians, it's up to us to GOTV.

[NastyRiffraff]

23. Yes indeed!

Work your asses off in Georgia! GOTV is more important than ever.

Georgians
