Description

At a groundbreaking of the new Anovion Technologies factory in the small town of Bainbridge, Georgia, Governor Brian Kemp framed the state’s green energy boom as a product of Republican policies rather than initiatives engineered by President Joe Biden to spur the electric-vehicle industry.
 
In this episode of The Atlanta Journal-Constitution’s Politically Georgia podcast, AJC political insiders Greg Bluestein and Patricia Murphy look at the argument between the Biden administration and the Kemp administration and explain how it’s actually a win for both sides.
 
Plus, why Secretary of State Brad Raffensperger is being interviewed by federal prosecutors investigating efforts by Donald Trump and his allies to overturn the 2020 election. Also, hear how Raffensperger is shifting the conversation about voting machine upgrades.
 
Finally, how friends, neighbors, and local leaders of all stripes are rallying around the Jewish community denouncing the recent events of neo-Nazi demonstrations and raising the call for new legal protections against antisemitism.
 
Have a question for Greg and Patricia? Call the 24-hour Politically Georgia Podcast Hotline at 404-526-AJCP. That's 404-526-2527. We’ll play back your question and answer it during the Listener Mailbag segment on next Friday’s episode.
