May 28, 2024•56 min•Transcript available on Metacast Episode description
Over the weekend, the Libertarian Party nominated Atlanta’s Chase Oliver to be the Party’s candidate for president. On today’s episode of The Atlanta Journal-Constitution’s Politically Georgia podcast, hosts Patricia Murphy, Bill Nigut and Tia Mitchell are joined by Oliver as he discusses his platform and the chaotic Libertarian Party convention that featured a speech by Donald Trump, who was loudly booed by delegates and guests.
We also hear from AJC politics reporter Shannon McCaffery who updates us on the ongoing court hearings and the flurry of current legal filings in the Fulton County Trump election conspiracy case.
Plus, was Rep. Teri Anulewicz’s upset loss a result of a sexist campaign against her? Patricia Murphy digs deeper into her most recent AJC column.
