The 2008 United States presidential election in Georgia took place on November 4, 2008. Voters chose 15 representatives, or electors to the Electoral College, who voted for president and vice president.
Georgia was won by Republican nominee John McCain with a 5.2% margin of victory. Prior to the election, 15 of 17 news organizations considered this a state McCain would win, or otherwise a red state. It is situated in the Deep South, entrenched in the Bible Belt (the city of Atlanta being an exception). By 2008 it was considered a Republican stronghold, not having been won by a Democratic presidential candidate since 1992, and having given double-digit victories to George W. Bush in 2000 and 2004. McCain was able to keep Georgia in the GOP column in 2008 despite the large African American turnout that kept his margin of victory within single digits. 
In this election, Georgia voted 12.48% to the right of the nation at-large.With its 15 electoral votes, Georgia was the second-largest prize for McCain in 2008, behind only Texas. This was also the last time Georgia voted more Republican than Missouri, Montana, or Indiana. As of the 2020 presidential election, this is the last election in which Chattahoochee County voted Democratic.
