Trump’s leads are buoyed by strong support among traditional Republican demographics and only slim disadvantages among voting blocs that traditionally support Democrats. The president has a double-digit lead with male voters, and only trails three of his Democratic rivals by single digits with women voters. Trump tops Warren among women voters in Georgia in the poll by 1 point.
“Currently, it appears that they continue to face an uphill battle heading into the 2020 election, at least when it comes to the presidential election,” wrote Mason Dixon’s pollsters, referring to the four Democratic candidates surveyed.
Georgia has not voted for a Democratic presidential candidate since 1992, but Democrats are hopeful they can make gains in the state. Democrat Stacey Abrams lost the gubernatorial race in Georgia in a close contest in 2018, and Democrats are also emboldened by new residents flocking to the state and rising voter engagement.
