Gwinnett is a huge melting pot and probably the most diversified County in the USA. You have white/black/chinese/korean/indian and many other Countries represented. These people are not wealthy. The cost of gas and living will not fare well for these voters and I question how many are actually registered. As a Gwinnett resident, I concur with your assessment, although there are pockets of extreme wealth in the county. I will also tell you that more republicans turned out for the primary elections than Democrats in Gwinnett, so hopefully those same republicans will stay energized in November. Yep-lots of pockets of wealth and they are all Republican. Mostly around the golf courses. I lived walking distance from Mall of Georgia in a Townhouse. Awesome place. Christmas time we would walk to go shopping. Got to see the firework display on our back deck. Buford is a very nice area.

Peachtree Corners has really boomed since it became a city 10 years ago (largest in Gwinnett)...a great town center with free concerts every other weekend in the summer, lots of new restaurants, better shopping, regular special events, etc. But what else would you expect from a city run by republicans.
New InsiderAdvantage/FOX 5 poll: Kemp widens lead over Abrams, Senate race remains tight
ATLANTA - A new InsiderAdvantage/FOX 5 Atlanta poll released on Thursday shows incumbent Gov. Brian Kemp is widening his lead over Democrat Stacey Abrams as the race for U.S. Senate flips leads, but remains extremely close.
Kemp picked up a point, but Abrams slipped two points since Julyâ€s poll. Kemp continues to lead Abrams now with 50% versus her 42%. Libertarian Shane Hazel polled at 1% and another 1% say they plan to support another candidate. Those undecided have grown to 6%.
"Kemp leads in every age group in the survey. He receives right at 10% of African American support and a rather astounding 68% of white voters surveyed. Abrams has an impressive 54% of female voters while Kemp receives 63% from men," explained InsiderAdvantage Chairman Matt Towery. "Kemp has support from 50% of independents. With two months to go, Kemp would seem poised to potentially escape Georgia†s General Election runoff requirement."
Meanwhile, in the U.S. Senate race in Georgia, incumbent Sen. Rev. Raphael Warnock now trails Republican challenger Herschel Walker with 44% versus Walkerâ€s 47%. Warnock appears to have lost four points while Walker picked up two points since Julyâ€s poll. Libertarian Chase Oliver polled at 4% with 5% still undecided.

Kemp might save Walker.

You aren't expecting Democrats to seek revenge in Kemp v Abrams II with some mega voter fraud in Georgia? There's no way Dems would allow Kemp to win the rematch, would they?

Right now it doesn't appear that the Kemp/Abrams race will be close enough to allow Democrats to cheat and win. Â Walker should benefit from that.

Doesn't appear close enough based on what?

Right, the polls we've been told by HT, and others, not to trust.Â
