Geoff & Jason trade swipes | Ashling Cam-paigning to streamline SoS office
Cam Ashling joined The Ron Show Thursday.
A Democratic gubernatorial forum got a little testy Wednesday night in Stonecrest, and Ron has the audio exchange. Each of the seven major candidates – former Atlanta mayor Keisha Lance Bottoms, former lieutenant governor Geoff Duncan, state senator Jason Estevez, Olu Brown, state Senator Derek Jackson, and former DeKalb CEO Michael Thurmond – laid out their visions for Georgia—while Duncan and Estevez traded sharp barbs over voting rights and records. Hear the troubling verbiage Duncan used, the attack Esteves sought to land and Duncan’s return volley.
Duncan, looking to capitalize on recent and prominent Black endorsements, is due to have a fireside chat with the Georgia Men for Democracy Now PAC at The Gathering Spot.
Later in the show, Cam Ashling, a Democrat running for Secretary of State, joins Ron to talk about election security, voter protection, and her plan to create more Georgia businesses while fixing the state’s licensing system.
