On Monday’s episode of The Atlanta Journal-Constitution’s “Politically Georgia” podcast, the hosts answer questions from the listener mailbag.

AJC journalists Greg Bluestein, Patricia Murphy and Tia Mitchell dive into questions centered around the 2026 elections as listeners ask about candidates outside of Atlanta and about ranked choice voting.

They also answer questions about Everton Blair, the former Gwinnett school board chair challenging longtime U.S. Rep. David Scott.

“He is now joining what could be a very crowded race against Congressman Scott, a 12-term incumbent, who has faced a lot of questions about his age and his health,” said Bluestein.

The trio also fields questions from listeners about President Donald Trump’s defiance of the Supreme Court and the latest updates on the “big beautiful bill” he wants to push through Congress.
