Blue momentum: Democrats flip another seat in a special election

from Political Breakfast from WABE · host WABE

On this week's Political Breakfast, we head northeast, where Georgia Democrats gained a House seat recently during a special election. Democrat Eric Gisler's victory for a Athens-area State House seat came after Republicans won that seat last year -- by more than 20 percent. Gisler will replace Republican Rep. Marcus Wiedower, who resigned to focus on his job. National and Georgia Democratic leaders are now all talking about how this shows blue momentum going into the 2026 midterms. The win has huge implications and has Georgia's GOP, as well as strategists Tharon Johnson and Brian Robinson, talking about this blue momentum with host Lisa Rayam.
