Patricia likes to hit the road in Georgia and see lawmakers in action in their home districts. In this episode of The Atlanta Journal-Constitution’s Politically Georgia podcast, AJC political insiders Greg Bluestein and Patricia Murphy talk about Patricia’s recent road trip to Forsyth County and the changes the county has seen over its history.

Plus, our insiders discuss the latest buzz about Governor Brian Kemp becoming a possible contender against former President Donald Trump, the latest on Georgia’s new law banning certain treatments for transgender minors, and how politics and running go hand in hand at the AJC Peachtree Road Race

Greg and Patricia have their who's up and who's down for the week, and they answer questions from the listener mailbag. If you would like to ask a question, call the Politically Georgia 24-hour podcast hotline, and we will feature you on next Friday's episode.
