But challengers have yet to materialize in several prominent contests, including in the race against Gov. Brian Kemp and race for the Senate seat held by the Rev. Raphael Warnock.
Kemp is expected to face a primary challenge from a yet undeclared Republican before the general election. How likely is he to prevail against a challenge from within the Republican Party? And what of Stacey Abrams, his much-speculated Democratic opponent?
Plus, is Herschel Walker preparing to comply with Donald Trump’s urging that he enter the race for Warnock’s senate seat?
In Washington D.C., U.S. Sens. Jon Ossoff and Warnock joined fellow Democrats in condemning Senate Republicans for using the filibuster yesterday to block debate on a package of election reform measures they say are meant to counter restrictive voting laws passed in Georgia and other Republican-dominated states.
Despite their insistence that the battle for federal election standard is not over, do Democrats have a path forward to implement their reforms?
Panelists:
Dr. Andra Gillespie — Professor of Political Science, Emory University
Eric Tanenblatt — Republican Insider
Howard Franklin — Democratic Political Strategist
Greg Bluestein — Political Reporter, The Atlanta Journal-Constitution
