Dec 4, 2017Sunday’s Channel 2 Action News mayoral debate was the final faceoff between candidates Keisha Lance-Bottoms and Mary Norwood before Tuesday’s runoff vote.
The debate mostly focused on three big questions:
- Who is best equipped to lead the city during an ongoing federal bribery investigation?
- Would a Lance-Bottoms administration be a third term for Mayor Kasim Reed?
- Is Mary Norwood a stealth Republican seeking to lead a Democratic leaning city?
Listen to WSB Radio’s Condace Pressley, AJC political reporter Greg Bluestein and AJC Deputy Managing Editor Leroy Chapman Jr. break down what Sunday’s debate means for the mayoral race.
