politics is all about the battlegrounds. It's

1:13

been that way for a long time, which

1:16

I know firsthand because I've

1:18

been doing this for a long time. I'm

1:22

John King, CNN's chief national correspondent, and

1:24

this is All Over the

1:26

Map, a new series we're bringing you

1:28

in the run-up to the 2024 election,

1:30

where we're talking with voters in those

1:32

key battleground states, the key battleground counties,

1:35

the people who in November are

1:37

going to decide this race. Last

1:41

week, we brought you to Pennsylvania, where

1:43

Republicans in the Philadelphia suburbs are wrestling

1:45

with a choice they wish

1:47

they didn't have to make. Today

1:51

we're taking you to a state that just

1:53

a few election cycles ago, nobody would have

1:55

guessed, would be on our list of the

1:58

six or seven critical, decisive swing states. shops

4:00

in the metro Atlanta suburbs, about an hour and

4:02

a half south of where Matt lives. Politically,

4:05

it is a world away. We're

4:08

gonna sit down with both Matt and Christine, two

4:11

voters with very different politics, who

4:14

call different parts of Georgia home to hear what

4:16

they have to say about how they're going to

4:18

make their choice. Because

4:20

it's these voters, the ones who are struggling

4:23

with this choice in these

4:25

flippable states, places like Georgia, who

4:27

will decide who wins the White House. I'm

4:30

John King and this is All Over the Map, a

4:33

new series from CNN. Now

4:38

most of the focus in Georgia, in this

4:40

whole election really, is on the suburbs because

4:43

that's where most of the swing voters are. And

4:45

we'll get there on this trip. But these little towns,

4:47

these deep red rural parts of Georgia,

4:50

well they matter too. They matter because the electoral

4:52

math is not as simple for Republicans as

4:54

many people tend to think. And

4:57

that's why we're starting in Alto. At

4:59

Matt's Winery. It really is a

5:01

beautiful place. Steep rolling hills,

5:04

woods off in the distance. And it's a

5:06

working farm. A donkey. We like

5:08

donkeys. That's my body double.

5:10

That's my stunt dummy. We

5:13

visited in April when spring was just

5:15

gearing up and you can hear

5:18

in Matt's voice just how much he loves

5:20

this land. We're in

5:22

kind of a bouquet of pine

5:24

trees and hardwoods. We

5:27

have pastures just right behind that. Flowers

5:30

are just not coming out. I need a mow. We

5:34

head inside and

5:37

Matt pours us a glass. Blueberry

5:39

wine. Yes, fruit wine is what they make here.

5:41

We're the first winery in Hall County since prohibition

5:44

and there were no wineries before us to help

5:46

pave the way. So we were the ones that

5:48

had to do it. It's been a lot of

5:50

fun and it's been a lot of fun with

5:52

a lot of work. Yes, absolutely. And so tell

5:55

me a bit. About your politics. Not

5:57

so much about the whos but the whys and

5:59

the what's
