National polls show Trump leading Biden in Georgia

On today’s episode of The Atlanta Journal-Constitution’s Politically Georgia podcast, hosts Bill Nigut and Tia Mitchell dive into a new poll from CNN, published overnight, that gives Donald Trump a five-point lead over President Biden in Georgia. Meanwhile, a new Wall Street Journal poll shows Donald Trump ahead of President Biden for the first time in the national race. What do these snapshots tell us as we’re less than a year ahead from the election? WABE’s Theron Johnson and Sam Gringlas help break it all down. 

 

Then, Congress is headed for the holiday recess later this week without yet reaching an agreement on new funding for Israel or Ukraine. President Biden is pushing hard for a deal that will include GOP demands for new border finding.  

 

Plus, the new state legislative and U.S. House maps have been signed by Governor Kemp and are on their way to federal judge Steve Jones.
