The Georgia counties turning the state blue are growing. And quickly. - MeetThePress

WASHINGTON — Last week, David Perdue announced he would not run to recapture his Senate seat in Georgia for the Republicans. Many in the political class wondered why a strong candidate with deep family ties and a history as an incumbent would take a pass at a chance to run again.

The reality is that the vote in Georgia has moved considerably in the last dozen years, and behind that move is a massive set of swings to the Democrats around Atlanta. In fact, comparing 2008 to 2020, seven of the 10 counties that swung most heavily to the Democrats in the entire country were in metro Atlanta.

Those seven counties around Atlanta hold challenges for the GOP. They are very diverse, most have high percentages of college graduates and, perhaps most important, all of them are growing, and quickly.

MeetThePress BIBLE THUMPERS - 95% white - claim superior interpretation to FORCE THEIR THEOCRACY on America. Inclusive Christians oppose religious-right Republicans. 'FATHER FORGIVE THEM FOR THEY KNOW NOT WHAT THEY DO'. Then Jesus advises them, 'GO AND SIN NO MORE (VOTE OUT REPUBLICANS 😉)'

MeetThePress White FAKE Christians: yesteryear's infamous WHITE FLIGHT from Blacks to suburbia. Now flee racial responsibility: trash BLM for religious-right's 'law and order' cop-out. This retired CHRISTIAN COALITION REGIONAL DIRECTOR urges all to expose religious-right bigotry/hypocrisy.

California counties don't want COVID-19 vaccine efforts run by Blue ShieldBlue Shield of California's takeover of the state's vaccine delivery system lack buy-in from counties, with none of California's 58 counties having signed the Blue Shield contract yet. More good news please((( Riverside rent is going up since people have left Orange County in droves since worked can now be done remotely. Why are liberal publications always focus on OC when Riverside is now the most Republican among large counties in the Stae. This change to a new system in CA for covid distribution has screwed people waiting for 2nd shots. Why are we trying to change a tire on a car that is already moving?

Tyler Perry Calls Georgia Voting Law 'Unconstitutional,' Says DOJ Should Take Action'As some consider boycotting, please remember that we did turn Georgia blue and there is a gubernatorial race on the horizon,' said the Atlanta-based mogul. He should close his Atlanta studio down Why didn’t discuss in your interview with MitchOFarrell the way that reporters and the public were brutalized and targeted by cops. Are 1st amendment violations not click-bate enough for you ? 📸ShotOn35mm He also tried to protect his wallet. Forgetting to mention that future races will not be fair, winnable or “beautiful democracy” with these laws on the books.

Gavin Newsom feared a vaccine nightmare. So he outsourced California’s rollout.Newsom, facing a recall threat and under immense pressure to get the doses out quickly, turned to Blue Shield of California soon after vaccination problems surfaced. If they're going to outsource, then they need to do a much better job at communicating to the public where to get vaccinated & how to get an appointment. Elderly are not going to be able to navigate online reservation systems for multiple sites to find availability Please stop the crap on this. Outsourcing the vaccine effort was logical given how many connections Blue Shield has in the MEDICAL COMMUNITY v what the gov't has. Partnering with a private entity has gotten the vaccine in far more arms than what the govt alone could have. Of course, he's being recalled. So his slow roll out is a Republican problem. Utterly ridiculous.
