Contributing sentiments towards policy:

49% : Dixieland voters have the highest propensity for weekly religious services of any group at 37%, and the lowest "not religious" population at 14%, combined with one of the highest rates of any of the regions who say the country is on the right track +21, and +35 support for Trump.
48% : These are some of the most Republican areas in the country, with Georgia's 14th and 9th congressional districts voting for Trump by an imposing 68-31 and 67-33 margins, respectively.
42% : And Kemp understands -- perhaps better than any other elected official in Georgia -- that while the state's political map might look like a simple red versus blue situation articulating an urban-rural divide, it's actually a mosaic of regions with overlapping and rapidly changing political identities.
