ATLANTA — Former President Donald Trump returned to Georgia on the first day of early voting, intent on making the ultimate comeback by winning the state that led to his 2020 election defeat and subsequent prosecution.

“We want a landslide that’s too big to rig. We can’t let anything happen,” Trump told the roughly 2,800 people inside the Cobb Energy Performing Arts Centre on Tuesday evening. “Early voting is underway. Get everyone out. Get everyone you know. Just get them all out to vote. Go tomorrow.”
