ATLANTA When Joe Biden launched his presidential campaign, he dubbed it the “battle for the soul of the nation.” Locals argue that battle is being waged in Georgia as the rest of the country looks on.
Democrats now control all of Washington, after Biden won Georgia and both Senate seats here flipped in January. But Republicans still run all the levers of state government here, and they’re rallying behind a sweeping new election law that could tilt the political pendulum back in their column in 2022, when nine statewide executive offices and a high-profile Senate race will be on the ballot.

ALPHARETTA, Ga. Marjorie Taylor Greene smacked her gum as she pretended to listen to a man in a dress read a book about a unicorn.
It was late April of 2019. She sat in the rear of a room at the public library here near her home in this suburb north of Atlanta. Greene at the time identified as a mother, a business owner, a fitness trainer, a “supporter of the 2nd amendment,” “a patriot” and a “conservative blogger on social media,” and she had come to mount what she described as an “undercover” protest of something called “Drag Queen Story Hour” an event she saw as “insane” put on by a person she considered “an abomination.” Using her iPhone to surreptitiously record, Greene flipped back and forth between a shot of the stage and a close-up of her own face, creating a kind of herky-jerky show on Facebook Live.

ATLANTA Most top Georgia Republicans were silent or supportive of U.S. Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene after she was stripped of committee assignments for her history of bigoted comments and promotion of violent conspiracy theories.
But some state GOP figures are actively trying to minimize the freshman congresswoman’s influence on Georgia’s Republican Party amid fears that she could weigh down the ticket in 2022 when she’s up for another term or potentially takes a shot at statewide office.
