Hosts Greg Bluestein and Patricia Murphy break down new results from the AJC–University of Georgia poll that show former Atlanta Mayor Keisha Lance Bottoms as the early frontrunner in the Democratic primary for governor, while Lt. Gov. Burt Jones leads a crowded Republican field. They discuss what the numbers reveal about name recognition, fundraising power, and how undecided voters could still reshape both races. The hosts also look at the Senate race, where Congressman Mike Collins and Buddy Carter are competing for Trump-aligned voters, and explain why Jon Ossoff remains well positioned heading into 2026.
