In an exclusive interview with Fox News Digital, Essence Johnson, Chairwoman of the Cobb County Democratic Party, shares her analysis of Vice President Kamala Harris' chances of winning Georgia in the 2024 presidential election.
Georgia has emerged as a crucial battleground state in recent presidential elections, with both major parties vying for its electoral votes. In 2016, former President Donald Trump narrowly won Georgia, while in 2020, President Joe Biden flipped the state blue by a slim margin of 0.23%.
According to recent Fox News polling, Vice President Kamala Harris holds a three-point lead over Trump among registered Georgia voters. Harris is perceived as more likely to help the middle class, protect democracy, and fight for the interests of ordinary people. She also enjoys a significant advantage in handling the issue of abortion, which is a top concern for many Georgia voters.

Harris has repeatedly asserted that Trump would implement a federal abortion ban if re-elected. However, Trump and his running mate, Ohio Senator J.D. Vance, have denied this claim, emphasizing that abortion laws are now determined by individual states.
In a recent Truth Social post, Trump vowed to "protect women at a level never seen before" and ensure that "powerful exceptions" for abortion are implemented nationwide. He argued that women are facing unprecedented challenges in areas such as economic security, health, and safety.
