The importance of women’s rights this election year

Politically Georgia

Senate Republicans this week voted down a Democratic measure

designed to protect women’s access to contraception. Now, Democrats plan to

call for a vote to protect the right to in vitro fertilization. On today’s

episode of The Atlanta Journal-Constitution’s Politically Georgia podcast,

hosts Bill Nigut and Greg Bluestein are joined by former Democratic state

Senator Jen Jordan to discuss the role she believes women’s reproductive rights

will play in the 2024 elections.

Bill and Greg later examine polls taken after Donald Trump’s

criminal conviction in the Manhattan hush money trial to determine whether the

trial’s outcome has changed the shape of the race between President Biden and

former President Trump.

And as we do every Friday, hear answers to your questions

from the Politically Georgia listener mailbag and give their picks for who’s up

and who’s down this week.
