The winners and losers of Georgia’s runoff elections

The Georgia’s primary runoff elections now behind us. On today’s episode of The Atlanta Journal-Constitution’s Politically Georgia podcast, hosts Patricia Murphy and Tia Mitchell look at the winners and losers of Georgia’s runoffs and talk about what it means as we head into the November elections. Republican strategist Stephen Lawson joins the podcast to discuss the closely watched GOP races in Georgia’s 2nd and 3rd congressional districts. State Senator Gloria Butler joins the program to talk about what it means that several Democratic candidates with support from some of the party’s top leaders lost their local races. And later, our hosts discuss former special prosecutor Nathan Wade’s recent media blitz. Some are speculating that Wade could be seeking a TV contract, but legal experts tell the AJC that Wade’s media tour could put what’s left of the Trump election interference case in peril, since the Court of Appeals is scrutinizing whether his relationship with the DA should disqualify her from the case.
