GA-07: Rep. Rob Woodall will not seek reelection

[Nyvin]

this is GOOD for GOP chances. It is laughable to imply otherwise. The GOP are the people who were pressuring him to retire.

Abrams beat Kemp by 2 here

The Democrat beat the Republican by 2 points in the most Democrat leaning year in decades? *pretends to be concerned*

In a district that's trending left rapidly and only 45% white.

Is there any example from 2018 where a Republican stepping down made it easier to hold the seat with a replacement nominee? Let’s rule out the heavily scandalous which Woodall was not.

Young Kim probably came closer than Royce would have  and Crenshaw definetely did better than the incumbent would have done.

Crenshaw won by 7.2% in a district Trump won by 9.3%,  I really doubt he improved much over what the previous incumbent would've done.
