Kamala Harris’s final pitch, leaders talk election integrity

Politically Georgia

With Election Day less than a week away, Kamala Harris delivers her closing campaign message, promising unity and inclusion, even for those who oppose her—setting a sharp contrast with Donald Trump’s rhetoric. On today’s episode of The Atlanta Journal-Constitution's Politically Georgia podcast, hosts Bill Nigut, Greg Bluestein, Patricia Murphy and Tia Mitchell break down Harris’s final pitch and the impact it could have on the race.

The second half of the episode features a deep dive into election integrity. Bill Nigut moderates a panel with former Senator Saxby Chambliss, former Governor Roy Barnes, and former Atlanta Mayor Shirley Franklin. They discuss the challenges of restoring trust in elections, how leaders can bridge political divides, and the mission of the Democracy Defense Project as voters head to the polls.

We also take a moment to celebrate a big achievement—our first anniversary on WABE. Listen as we reflect on the stories and moments that have defined our first year.
