The president of the League of American Workers (LAW) said the presidential election in Georgia is going to be determined by voter turnout by American workers.

"My organization has been doing polls all year long, but the only poll that matters is Election Day,” Steve Cortes, president and founder of LAW, told Peach Tree Times. “And in battleground states like Georgia, this is going to come down to voter turnout.”

“If American workers who are sick of higher grocery costs, higher housing costs, and illegal aliens taking their jobs turnout in Georgia, Donald Trump is going to win this race,” Cortes said.

Former President Donald Trump (R) leads Vice Presidential Harris by 1.5% in Georgia, according to the latest RealClearPolitics polling average

An August poll released released by American Greatness showed the race to be a dead heat in seven battleground states, including Georgia, with voters favoring Trump on economic issues and giving Harris low marks on border security and her support for reparations.

Only 15% of voters in these battleground states said “Bidenomics” works “very well,” with 40% of voters saying it works “not at all.” Among voters aged 18-34 years old, only 9% said Bidenomics works “very well.”

On inflation, 64% of voters say Harris bears a “great deal” or “some” of the blame for the rise in grocery prices since 2021, and 51% of voters said they were better off financially under Trump.

Only 8% of voters in the survey said Harris’ performance on the border was “very strong,” with 47% saying her performance has been “very weak.” 

Harris’ support for reparations for Black Americans is supported by only 27% of voters in these states, with 60% opposing her stance. 

The American Greatness poll was conducted by North Star Opinion Research among 1400 likely voters, 200 per state, in each of the seven battleground states.
