Last week, Kelvin Williams, founder and owner of 373K, announced his company would depart from Georgia after the State Senate passed FADA. The announcement was picked up by numerous media outlets and sparked a debate within Georgia over the possible economic impact of Religious Freedom legislation. It should be noted 373K is a telecommunications vendor
I woke up this morning to Trump winning Nevada by runaway numbers, and in a state of Lovecraftian horror began considering the electoral math more closely. As it happens, so did the Washington Post. They believe he is almost certainly going to get the delegates he needs. Looking at that makes me understand why Ohio
Hillary Clinton is poised for a pretty big win in Georgia and in several other primaries next week. But how much will she win by? How much does she need to win by? If you’re interested in following the polls, you’re probably already reading Nate Silver’s FiveThirtyEight. Before Obama was reelected four years ago, many

On the Republican side, Donald Trump still leads the field, although his support has dropped by 16 points since a previous December poll. On the Democratic side. Hillary Clinton leads over Bernie Sanders
As you know, we strive to be a site that specializes in Georgia politics. That’s different than the politics of Georgians, which opens up all discussions to the national talking points of the day. That said we’re also a community, and we understand that you fine people still want (for some of you need) to
(A petition has been added below.) My Facebook feed is awash in lies from the Daily Currant and Duffelblog and The Onion and Donald Trump, so perhaps I might be forgiven from assuming that Andre Walker‘s piece on Georgia Unfiltered was fiction, parody designed solely to provoke people like me.

State Representative David Stover (R-HD-71) filed HB 723 prior to the convening of the 2016 session of the Georgia General Assembly.
