Description

The First Lady of Georgia, Marty Kemp, says she hasn’t decided whether to vote for Donald Trump despite her husband's statement that the former president would be “better than Joe Biden.” 
 
But first, Melita Easters, founder and executive director of the Georgia WIN List, joins the podcast to discuss how her organization goes about identifying and supporting pro-choice Democratic women for seats in the legislature. And she offers her thoughts on the role she believes the restrictions being placed on abortion in Georgia and elsewhere will have on races this year. 
  
Then, Deputy Secretary of State Jordan Fuchs tells the podcast that voters should see little difference in voting procedures when they cast ballots in the upcoming election. She also comments on the humorous letter Brad Raffensperger wrote to Larry David in response to the comedian’s spoof on a Georgia election law on his show “Curb Your Enthusiasm.” 
 
Plus, GOP state chairman Josh McKoon is leading an effort to remove first vice-chair of the party Brian Pritchard, who a judge ruled has voted illegally numerous times.
