Former President Trump is dominating among Georgia's biggest political donors.
The big picture: Trump has raised nearly twice as much as President Biden among Georgia residents who contributed $200 or more this election cycle, per Federal Election Commission data.
Between the lines: That's a reversal of fortunes compared to nationwide numbers, where Biden leads Trump in fundraising by $18 million.

- Nikki Haley reported 16,205 large donations in Georgia. Biden's campaign reported 6,217.
