2. Shortly to follow, "How we lost so many statehouses in the last 2 elections"

IIRC, the GOP now controls 37 or 38 Governor's seats and state houses, several of which used to be Blue or a deep purple?

3. There are about 5

Democrats in elected office in Georgia. These folks will soon be losing their office. I've lived in a number of states over the years, and Georgia is by far the most conservative, WAY more conservative than Montana (which is more libertarian than anything).
