  • Summary

  • The podcast looks at the aftermath of the stunning turn of events Sunday when President Joe Biden dropped out of the race and Vice President Kamala Harris emerged as the Democrats' likely new presidential candidate. The hosts talk with Van Johnson, mayor of Savannah and a member of the Democratic National Committee. The mayor said he supports Harris for the Democratic nomination. Then, Democratic state Rep. Shelly Hutchinson, who will be a delegate to the party's convention next month, tells the podcast she understands that as a Black and South Asian woman, Harris will face challenges winning the support of voters who may be unwilling to cast their ballots for a female or a minority candidate. Plus, Atlanta Journal-Constitution elections reporter Mark Niesse explains how a different Democratic presidential candidate can be placed on the Georgia ballot.
