Georgia's 6th went R because it was a Republican district to begin with. Clinton's performance in 2016 was probably the best the Democrats could hope for considering current demographics, and even that was helped by GOP moderates voting third party. The district is trending Democrat but it will take another 4-8 years for it be a true swing district. Another factor hurting Ossoff was the high turnout. Democrats are obviously more enthusiastic about voting right now, but they lost that advantage here with the oversaturation of ads, media interest etc.
