Cobb went blue in 2016 for the first time since Jimmy Carter. You can't count on Cobb anymore.

True, but the County is strongly pro business and that Board Of Commissioners and County leadership would welcome it minus a couple detractors.

The mayor of the South’s supposed premier city is named Keisha?


She's the second black female mayor of Atlanta.

The first one was Shirley Franklin, and even the rednecks liked her. She was no-bullshite. She is the first ATL mayor to not get indicted for something in over 25 years.

Keisha's legacy remains to be seen.

It’s pretty hot in Hotlanta during the month of August. I would think the RNC would want an indoor venue.

It's a damn shame that Truist Park is in Cobb County.

Is the Cobb Energy Center viable? I think it holds like 3k regular. Obviously smaller than ideal but if people are still acting lame over the virus it may have to be a smaller scale anyway. Man I would love for Cobb to hose the RNC.

Cobb Energy Centre is a large theater.

I think they would require an arena.

We all know why she's banning the convention, and it has nothing to do with COVID.
