Special session underway to redraw Georgia's political maps, Voting rights groups still cite legal issues with newly-proposed map

from Political Breakfast from WABE · host WABE

It's back to the drawing board on this week's live episode of Political Breakfast. State lawmakers are convening at the Georgia Capitol for a special session to redraw maps for Congress and the state legislature. U.S. District Judge Steve Jones recently found the current GOP-drawn maps from 2020 violate the federal Voting Rights Act, and dilute the power of Black voters. But voting rights plaintiffs -- including the ACLU of Georgia -- say they still have "legal concerns" about a newly-proposed state Senate political map released this week. The maps must be redrawn by Dec. 8th. Republican Strategist Brian Robinson and CEO of the Atlanta Civic Circle Saba Long weigh-in with host Lisa Rayam on a live edition of Political Breakfast.
