Trump tests the Georgia GOP’s pivot to November

from Politically Georgia · host The Atlanta Journal-Constitution

President Donald Trump’s return to Georgia puts his influence over the state Republican Party back in focus. On today’s episode of The Atlanta Journal-Constitution’s Politically Georgia podcast, Greg Bluestein and Patricia Murphy speak with Republican strategist Stephen Lawson about how Rick Jackson and Mike Collins can appeal to swing voters without alienating Trump’s base. Lawson also assesses Collins’ difficult path against U.S. Sen. Jon Ossoff, lingering GOP tensions after the governor’s runoff and the possibility of another redistricting session later this year. The discussion also covers health care, competitive state House races and the growing debate over data centers. Have a question or comment for the show?
