Voters in Georgia made their pick for president while holding negative views about the country’s direction, according to an expansive AP survey of the American electorate.

AP VoteCast found that almost two-fifths of Georgia voters said the U.S. is on the right track and three-fifths of voters said it is headed in the wrong direction.

No Republican presidential candidate has lost the Peach State’s 16 electoral votes since George H.W. Bush in 1992. President Donald Trump won the state by five points in 2016.
