There is no doubt the boundary was incorrectly drawn, but Tennessee lawmakers point out that error was made nearly 200 years ago. While the issue is periodically resurrected, Georgia has never sought a court remedy and never disputed elections in the parts of Tennessee it now claims. Nor has it provided infrastructure, tried to collect taxes or even challenged official maps delineating the state lines. Tennessee lawmakers have flatly rejected any possibility of border talks and in their own resolution condemned Georgia for its "heinous assault on the sovereignty of Tennessee...
