PHIL SKINNER FOR THE ATANTA JOURNAL-CONSTITUTION

The dust has yet to settle on the 2020 election in Georgia, but one thing is clear: The suburbs around Atlanta and Georgia’s other metropolitan areas have upended Georgia politics.

The Atlanta Journal-Constitution’s political team is breaking down the results of the 2020 election in Georgia and the demographic changes that made it possible for Joe Biden to edge out Donald Trump. And they look ahead to Georgia’s two hotly contested U.S. Senate runoffs, which will determine which party controls the Senate.

AJC Editor Kevin Riley leads the discussion with the paper’s longtime columnist Jim Galloway and political reporters Greg Bluestein, Tia Mitchell, Patricia Murphy and Mark Niesse.

The livestream is over, but you can watch a replay of the discussion here:

The AJC livestreamed this event Tuesday Nov. 17, from 5 to 6 p.m. on the AJC’s Facebook page and YouTube account.

This virtual event is part of an ongoing series.
