Newt made history!
A Smart Politics review of presidential primary contests finds that Newt Gingrich's 47.2% performance in Georgia was tied for the second lowest support for a major Republican presidential candidate in his home state since the 1972 cycle, and tied for the lowest number for a winning candidate.
The worst home state performance for a Republican was Pat Robertson in Virginia in 1988.
I don't know if Georgians really consider him to be a Georgian since he's a Yankee transplant.
