Experts Think Georgia Can Withstand Trump-Backed Conspiracies

Donald Trump unsuccessfully tried to pressure Georgia's political leadership to "find" him votes in the 2020 election, but election conspiracies he inspired and continues to encourage continue to play a big role this cycle.

Experts are confident the law and courts are strong enough to avoid a catastrophic outcome in the face of the threats, but the Harris campaign is hoping to win big enough that Trump's conspiracies won't matter.

This episode: White House correspondent Deepa Shivaram, voting correspondent Miles Parks, and WABE reporter Sam Gringlas.
