GA Repubs come for early voting & to smother transit referendums

PLUS: Ossoff, slew of GA Democrats qualify. Meet the young candidate running for HD 4 and what impact will this session have on housing affordability, availability and advocacy for the unhoused? A couple notable bills are picking up steam under the Gold Dome; both a bit concerning. GA Senate Republicans want to return to hand-marked paper ballots (fine), but also to eliminate early in-person voting (why?). Also, now there's a push to limit transit referendums to once every eight years, particularly troubling in metro Atlanta when the region's already vastly underserved by mass transit and the state DOT is woefully behind on meeting vehicular needs. Sen. Jon Ossoff joined a long line of Democrats in Atlanta Monday to qualify for their 2026 races and greeted supporters afterwards with a somber-toned statement weaving the Iran conflict with affordability - both of which are top-of-mind with voters this cycle now.Ron was joined by Natalie Keiser, Executive Director of HouseATL, who explained how housing affordability, homelessness policy, and state legislation are shaping (or mis-shaping) Atlanta’s housing crisis. Then, meet the candidate Ron openly called for weeks ago: Quentin Postell, an under-30 candidate running for Georgia House District 4. Quentin explained why he entered the race and shared his concerns about “forever chemicals” linked to water contamination in Dalton and Whitfield County.Tune in to catch the Ron Show weekdays from 4-6pm Eastern time on Georgia NOW!
