Nov 11, 2024•55 min•Transcript available on Metacast Episode description
As Republicans celebrate Donald Trump’s imminent return to the White House, the coalition he built is prompting discussions about a shifting political landscape. On today’s episode of The Atlanta Journal-Constitution's Politically Georgia podcast, hosts Bill Nigut and Tia Mitchell speak with UGA political science professor Audrey Haynes about what Trump’s broad support means for Georgia’s increasingly diverse electorate.
We also dive into Kamala Harris’s challenges in energizing Black male voters, traditionally a strong Democratic base. Democratic strategist Fred Hicks shares his insights on why Harris’s support among Black men lagged and whether there’s a risk of scapegoating this group for her loss.
We’ll also bring you the latest news making political waves in Georgia
