Georgia’s shift right helps propel Trump to second term

Former President Donald Trump will be the 47th president of the United States.

Nearly 5.3 million Georgians voted, breaking the turnout record set during the 2020 election. Trump received 50.7% of Georgia’s vote, turning the swing state red after President Joe Biden’s victory four years ago.

On this week’s episode of “Plugged In: A WABE Politics Podcast,” politics reporters Sam Gringlas and Rahul Bali explain how Trump won the Peach State.

Plus, a look at the results of some competitive down ballot races and three statewide ballot measures dealing with taxes.
