There was a statistical presentation that had shown that 74% of Georgians support state protections of LGBTQ people from discrimination in employment, housing and public accommodations. Roughly 52-56% of Georgians also strongly support 78% of voters under the age of 36. Issues pertaining to HIV in 2019 include :
