Eugene Talmadge was an outspoken governor of Georgia and was found to be vocally criticizing F.D. Roosevelt's New Deal programs. He believed FDR was overstepping his position in forcing states to participate in New Deal programs with specifics laid out.

Georgia still practiced Jim Crow segregation, literacy tests, poll taxes, and lynchings to maintain racial separation in the state.
