ATLANTA — With early voting underway in Georgia, a small group of voters who crossed party lines for Donald Trump in 2024 say they are considering a sharp change in direction at the ballot box this fall. In two online focus groups held Tuesday, 11 of 12 Georgians who voted for Joe Biden in 2020 and Trump in 2024 said they were dissatisfied with the president’s performance. Ten said they regretted voting for him, according to Rich Thau, whose firm, Engagious, moderates the sessions. Participants cited pocketbook concerns and foreign policy, including inflation, tariffs and the war with Iran. Charles, a 43-year-old Democrat whose surname was withheld, said he had seen little benefit from the administration. Richard, a 56-year-old Republican who said he has been unemployed for 10 months, complained about rising costs and immigration enforcement, saying it had split families and led to deaths. Those were participants’ assessments, not independently established findings from the discussions. The discontent could matter in a closely watched midterm campaign. Seven of the 12 participants said Trump would influence them to vote for Democrats, Thau said. Karla, a 49-year-old Democrat who said she voted Republican in 2024, plans to vote for Democrats across the ballot because she is unhappy with the administration. Another participant, Cedric, a 41-year-old independent, said he would avoid candidates closely aligned with Trump. Ten of the 12 said they planned to vote for Democratic Sen. Jon Ossoff, with some citing his opposition to Trump as a reason. Some participants said they wanted a Democratic-controlled Congress to check the president and restore confidence in the economy. Thomas, a 65-year-old independent, said he expected lawmakers less afraid to challenge Trump to impose more limits. Republican participant Jennifer, 43, said she feared Trump would have “free rein” if Republicans retained control. The groups were organized by Engagious and recruiting firm Nelson Recruiting as part of recurring discussions in battleground states. They offer a glimpse of how some voters explain their choices, but 12 participants cannot establish how Georgia’s electorate as a whole feels or intends to vote. The sessions come as Trump has increased campaign travel to support Republican candidates and argue for keeping GOP control in Washington. Georgia’s early voting began Tuesday, with Election Day only weeks away.
