As we previously reported the Attorney Generals in the State of Alabama and Louisiana have expressed support for this motion and the president. She becomes the third AG from the south to show public support for the motion. 

Most of the south is reportedly starting to rally behind the president as Louisiana, Arkansas, Alabama, Florida, Kentucky, Mississippi, South Carolina, and South Dakota have all joined in supporting Texas’ lawsuit against the four swing states of Michigan, Georgia, Wisconsin, and Pennsylvania. 

Below is a map of the states.

As you can see the Deep south is rallying behind the President as the legal battle moves forward.
