Young Democrats of Georgia leader decries Trump’s 'toxic masculinity'

Politically Georgia

First up: Gabe Sterling, the chief operating officer of Georgia's secretary of state's office, joins the show to talk about the decision to give four candidates, in addition to former President Donald Trump and Vice President Kamala Harris, a place on the state's presidential ballot.

Then, Georgia Young Democrats leader Parker Short talks about his organization’s annual conference this past weekend and describes how it will work to get potential Gen Z voters out to vote. He talks about a gender gap, identified by a number of polls, revealing that for voters under 30, young women support Harris 67% to 29%, while 53% of men in the same age group support Trump and 40% back Harris.

Plus, AJC investigative reporter Katherine Landergan discusses her findings that the state agency designated to help disabled Georgians find and keep jobs is failing at an alarming rate.
