Debra's not done: my chat with Georgia's 2025 candidate 'that could'
from The Ron Show · host Ron Roberts
She out-performed Kamala Harris by 13 points and the last candidate to try to win her state Senate district in November by ten percentage points, too. That could be a harbinger of things to come in 2026 (quick, Donald; get on the phone to Kemp to work on those maps!) but it also speaks to candidate quality as voters came out for Debra Shigley in the special election to fill the 21st Senate district seat vacated by Brandon Beach. It isn't just about what the voters did, though; it's about the small army of young and energetic campaigners she drew in with her magnetic personality and go-get-em tenacity.Debra and i caught up to discuss that and the still-monumental task of winning the run-off next month. We also took right to her opponent's website to combat his six big policy points. She handled 'em all like a champ.------There's an effort afoot, on the right, to question the trans medical process. 'Fox & Friends' host Brian Kilmeade tried it out on RFK Jr. who, to his (rare) credit, opted not to the take the bait. While Kilmeade - after two mass shootings triggered by trans murderers - wants to 'study' if trans medical treatment is a source of concern, he didn't bring up the leading batch of culprits - white supremacists - let alone champion further study there. Interesting, no?
