In this episode of The Atlanta Journal-Constitution’s Politically Georgia podcast, hosts Bill Nigut, and Tia Mitchell discuss the moving service for Rosalynn Carter at Glenn Memorial Church in Atlanta. Former state representative Calvin Smyre joins the podcast to reflect on his early memories of meeting Jimmy and Rosalynn Carter in the years leading up to the 1976 presidential campaign. 
Then: Republican insider Brian Robinson and Georgia State University professor of law Anthony Michael Kreis talk about the new political maps being drawn by the state legislature as lawmakers work to comply with a federal order to give Black voters fairer representation in state elections. 
 
Plus: A look at the strategy Donald Trump defense attorney Steve Sadow plans to use when the Fulton County election conspiracy case begins: it’s all about free speech, Sadow says.
