Analysis from InsiderAdvantage founder and Fox5 Political Analyst Matt Towery:
“OpinionSavvy conducted this poll with our organization in numerous southern states. Georgia remains “Clinton Country” with Clinton carrying the majority of African Americans, a critical part of a Georgia Democratic primary. That said, she is slightly under 50% among white voters and does better with female voters versus males. This could possibly open Georgia up to a closer race should either Biden enter the contest and Sanders fade, or Biden remove his name as a potential candidate. But at present Democrats in Georgia continue to favor Clinton.”
