Redistricting in Georgia
- After losing ground in the Atlanta suburbs over the last decade, Georgia Republicans drew a congressional map that combines two Democratic-held districts in the area.
- The move creates a new Republican-leaning seat while setting up a member vs. member primary between Democratic Reps. Lucy McBath and Carolyn Bourdeaux in a neighboring district.
