Dickens is correct but also wrong in his DNC snub letter
PLUS: Alpharetta’s aversion to icky renters & why would a Billy Linville crossover endorsement matter when Rick cant’ get Burt on board?
Earlier this week, the Democratic Party announced its finalists for the 2028 DNC convention and Atlanta didn’t make the shortlist (Denver, Philadelphia and Boston all did); a decision that – on its face – is sort of inexplicable given Georgia’s teetering on the brink of flipping blue with a good solid nudge or two and that the aforementioned finalists have all hosted the convention in recent years.
Atlanta Mayor Andre Dickens released a letter of exasperation – not wrong to disagree with the decision to snub Atlanta i n2028 – but he included enough ammunition for the GOP to use in a 2026 midterm cycle that’s beyond-necessary for the party he’s a member of to claw back some power in Congress and in his own state. Hear why I likened his letter to a post-grounding tantrum from a teenager.
A plan to develop Alpharetta’s North Point Mall is getting pushback because the developer wants to include – ick! – apartments instead of buyable condominiums and townhomes. That north Fulton County enclave already has some NIMBY-istic laws on the books limiting the number of leasable homes in its city limits, but I can’t help but wonder where they think a new sports arena’s concessions, ticket booth and usher employees are going to live since jobs like those don’t pay well enough for anyone to live IN Alpharetta?
Who TF is Billy Linville – aside from a guy who dresses a lot like Rick Jcakson? Well, he’s some moderate Democrat mover-n-shaker in Georgia politics (I guess?) who’s endorsing ‘slick Rick.’ Meanwhile, prominent Georgia Republican (and current lieutenant governor) Burt Jones still hasn’t warmed to supporting – let alone voting for – Rick Jackson.
