Solid Democrat for 2 cycles vs less-than-10% margin of victories for many previous cycles, but not historically a battleground state. Like I said: go fuck yourself, blowhard.
Mitt Romney carried Georgia by less than 8% in 2012 with neither party contesting it whatsoever. The margin of victory is close to irrelevant by itself -- if both parties
know who the victor will be on Election Day months before it comes then the state's not competitive, let alone a battleground state. It would take, you know, both parties
actually battling in the state for it to really earn that classification. Obama carried Pennsylvania by 5 points, visited the state in June and ran an ad there he ran in 28 states. Is that a battleground state? Just like how the Republicans didn't bother to contest New Mexico against Obama because they knew they'd lose it then, the Democrats didn't bother to contest it decades earlier. The Electoral Votes count the same whether the victor carries the state by one vote or one million votes.
It's comical how poor your understanding of politics is in this country.

It's all speculation at this point but I'm sure there are hoards of dumb uneducated people just waiting to make Hillary president. What a terrible choice by the people if so and will only prove our nation has hit the best times and will decline at a ever increasing rate. Santara I got your back man. Jay and his liberal agenda is nothing short of ignorance. Progressive liberals could be the death penalty for the election
Well you're right about one thing (and only one thing), it's definitely just speculation: it's well-established that
Donald Trump is the only candidate who is disproportionately benefiting from, moreover relying on, uneducated people. Trying to project that onto other candidates amusingly just shows the height of your ignorance. It'd probably be a good idea to refrain from characterizing the contributions of others as ignorance as well -- you embarrass yourself every time you do it because it's painfully obvious that you're hilariously uninformed.
