The Deep South, which has been a bedrock of Republican support for 20 years in presidential elections, may well be considering a change from GOP red to Democratic blue.

A poll released Friday indicates that Hillary Clinton has a four-point lead on Donald Trump in Georgia.

Meanwhile, according to Real Clear Politics – which tracks polls nationwide, Mississippi is considered as "leaning" toward Trump and not a solid Trump state like Alabama is listed by the website.

Still, that means three of Alabama neighbors are apparently less than solidly behind Trump. Tennessee, like Alabama, is still considered a solid Trump state, according to Real Clear Politics.

The only Alabama neighboring state to vote Democratic in the presidential election this century was Florida in 2012. Before that, you have to go back to 1996 when Florida and Tennessee backed Bill Clinton's re-election campaign.
