In Georgia, a majority democratic area is now represented by a Republican.
Rep. Meisha Mainor took to Twitter to say she's switching parties.
"My name is Rep. Mesha Mainor and today I made the decision to leave the Democrat Party. I represent a blue district in the city of Atlanta so this wasn't a political decision for me. It was a MORAL one. I will NEVER apologize for being a black woman with a mind of my own."
Mainor, Georgia's only black GOP member, told Atlanta affiliate WSB what led to her decision.
She also posted this reason on Twitter.: "I didn't leave the Democrat Party.
The Democrat Party left ME when it embraced left-wing radicalism, lawlessness, and put the interests of illegal aliens over the interest of Americans.
I have nothing to apologize for."
