Purposeful House candidate aims to flip GA 1

Democratic Congressional nominee (GA 1) Amanda Hollowell joined The Ron Show Wednesday.

PLUS: We get a post-primary checkup on the Democrats’ slate in Georgia from Atlanta-based strategist & Mike Collins will have a hard time beating Ossoff when he’s unliked within GOP ranks

Now that we’re clear of the primary calendar (checks to make sure it’s impossible there’s any. more. run-offs) it’s time to get to know some of the Democratic candidates throughout the state running for state and federal offices.

Numerically, why not start in Georgia’s 1st Congressional? ⁠Amanda Hollowell⁠ is the party’s nominee; a well-known political strategist and the Chief of Campaigns at Color Of Change, the country’s largest online racial justice organization. I got to spend a lot of time learning about her, what’s shaped her mindset and how her professional background and her raising a son who chimes in with his and his friends’ views makes her a sharpened candidate to flip GA 1. – – –

Atlanta-based political strategist/consultant Andrew Heaton popped on a call for a post-primary check-up of the Georgia Democratic Party’s November slate, and to look at what the GOP counter candidacy looks like, too.

One issue that may hobble Mike Collins is that he’s unlikable ⁠even among prominent conservatives in the state⁠, and the ⁠improprieties within his campaign and Congressional office⁠ may dog him throughout the general election cycle.
