Party leaders in Cobb County, Georgia, spoke with Fox News Digital about why the Atlanta suburbs will be so pivotal in the 2024 presidential election.
MARIETTA, Ga. — While 1600 Pennsylvania Ave. may sit within the boundaries of Washington, D.C., the key to unlocking its front door could lie in the suburbs outside Atlanta, local officials say. 'It’s not just the state, it’s federal,' Cobb County Democratic Party Chair Essence Johnson told Fox News Digital in an interview. 'Cobb County is the epicenter. It’s the bellwether of Georgia, but also on the federal level. … That’s why Cobb County is so vital.
We have seen some areas of weakness as far as voters and also reaching those communities to really understand the reason why they feel that they are not being heard,' Johnson said. 'They don't feel that certain policies have reached them. And even though I say there is no specific policy for anybody, reproductive rights impact my son, right? He has a responsibility to reproductive rights because that could be his girlfriend, his partner, his best friend.
Grubbs said she also had a focus on Americans feeling confident in the elections: 'In this election, everybody needs to get out and vote. Everybody needs to have their voice heard. Everybody needs to be concerned about election integrity.' CLICK HERE TO GET THE FOX NEWS APP 'They need to know that when they cast a ballot, their vote counts,' Grubbs said. Georgia's early in-person voting period begins on Oct. 15 and runs through Nov. 1.
