A high-profile run-up to the Tuesday Georgia run-off
from The Ron Show · host Ron Roberts
It's election day in Georgia's 21st Senate district and Democrat Debra Shigley has enjoyed a lot of support for her campaign to wrest a red-leaning suburban Atlanta enclave from the GOP.High-profile names like Senator Jon Ossoff, Representative Lucy McBath, former gubernatorial (at least we believe she's still 'just' a former candidate, for now) Stacey Abrams, DNC chair Ken Martin, current (Democrat and ...) gubernatorial candidate Geoff Duncan, one of his combatants in former Senator Jason Esteves ... the list is long and diverse, ideologically.I caught up with Debra Monday to discuss all of that and what's at stake and how the campaign has been affected by the national rift in the aftermath of the Charlie Kirk assassination.------Time for a postmortem of sorts on the would-be ascendency of one Fani Willis, embattled Fulton County District Attorney who allowed her personal life (as did Nathan Wade; let's not forget his role in this) to derail the biggest case in her career, and one that might've derailed a second Trump presidential campaign - and all that wound up bringing to this nation's doorstep since. It's not fair to blame her for his re-election, but it is fair to question her and Wade's inability to understand the moment was bigger than they were able to navigate professionally.
