Georgia Governor Republican Primary Map


The following county map shows the results of the Georgia Governor Republican Primary race between former Representative Nathan Deal and GA Secretary of State Karen Handel which took place on July 20, 2010. Deal narrowly beat Handel with 50.2% against Handel's 49.8%.

As the map shows, it is no surprise that the race was very close. Deal carried most of the rural counties throughout the state; while Handel carried the population centers and suburbs of Atlanta, Savannah, Augusta, and Columbus. Handel was also able to carry many rural counties as well, mostly those near the population centers.
