'''Georgia''' has 16 [[Electoral College]] votes in the [[2024 presidential election]]. It is a state located in the southern [[United States]] and was one of the original [[Colonial America|thirteen British colonies]] in the [[United States]]. It was the only colony not affiliated with a religious group: it was founded as a penal colony, much like [[Australia]] (though today it, like much of the American [[The South|South]], Georgia has a highly religious [[evangelical]] population).

Originally when the [[mainstream media]] reported it at the time, a water main pipe allegedly burst, forcing the evacuation of the room where mail-in and absentee ballots were counted in the State Farm Arena. However, these [[fake news]] reports also claimed that no ballots were damaged.

*Dem. Congressman, 7th District [[Larry McDonald]] (1935-1983), a conservative Member of Congress, was onboard [[Korean Airlines Flight 007]] when it was shot down by Soviet warplanes in 1983. His is the only reported Cold War death by the USSR of a sitting congressman. His memory is honored by renaming Interstate Highway 75, which runs from the Chattahoochee River northward to the Tennessee state line.
