The deeply personal connection between Bottoms and Jackson
from Politically Georgia · host The Atlanta Journal-Constitution
On today’s episode of The Atlanta Journal-Constitution’s Politically Georgia podcast, Patricia Murphy shares her conversation with Democratic nominee Keisha Lance Bottoms about infertility, faith and the journey that led her and her husband to adopt four children. Greg Bluestein and Patricia explore how that experience shaped Bottoms and how it connects with Republican nominee Rick Jackson’s story of growing up in foster care. Then, Greg and Patricia break down Jackson’s staggering $87 million fall advertising reservation. They look at how he plans to use the money, how Bottoms hopes to compete and why Jackson’s spending could make it harder and more expensive for every other Georgia campaign to reach voters.
