Description

On today's episode of The Atlanta Journal-Constitution's "Politically Georgia" podcast, hosts Bill Nigut and Tia Mitchell talk to Georgia African Methodist Episcopal Bishop Reginald Jackson. Bishop Jackson talks about the coalition of churches that is coming together to encourage Black voters to reengage in politics in this election year. 
 
Then, Atlanta Journal-Constitution columnist Nedra Rhone discusses her column in which she described how women, and Black women especially, may have viewed Fani Willis’ testimony in a different light in the hearing to dismiss her from the election conspiracy case against former President Donald Trump.  
 
Finally, Nikki Haley has announced a slate of supporters in Georgia, suggesting that she plans to stay in the race until the state’s March 12 primary. But will she?
