That said, I have some personal speculation I would love your thoughts on. Do you think there's a chance AMZ is awaiting the results of the Georgia governor election to announce where it'll move? Wondering if Cagle wins, AMZ will go elsewhere....
This is not widely reported, but the law meant to punish Delta was reversed.

ATLANTA — Georgia has asked vendors to stop collecting local sales tax on jet fuel, just months after the lieutenant governor effectively killed a broader sales tax exemption to punish Delta Air Lines for eliminating discount fares for National Rifle Association members.

The Georgia Department of Revenue on June 1 asked vendors to stop collecting local sales tax on retail sales of jet fuel beginning July 1. It said the move was needed to ensure Georgia complies with federal law and Federal Aviation Administration policies on jet fuel sales.
