North Georgia is heavily Republican, with its loyal to party roots going all the way back to the 1800s.
I thought north GA was pretty friendly to Zell Miller type Dems.
I assumed this was more of a national/Presidential discussion on state divides. There are levels to how the regions in Georgia vote depending on whether it's local, state or national. For example, Chattooga County, Georgia still hasn't had a Republican elected to local office. They continue to support Democrats at the state and national level by larger margins despite being surrounded by staunch Republicanism, but the area will probably never vote for a Democratic president again. It's an isolated, older community. This would be a more accurate display of local/state trends:
Wow, are there any other counties like this? Even more remarkable as a 67% McCain county.
