Sinopsis

Welcome to another special episode of The Georgia Politics Podcast! Craig is joined by three guests to discuss how elected officials connect with constituents, voter turnout, and what issues drive engagement. It’s a tale as old as time: voters turn out for the big elections, specifically for President and then for their state’s Governor, but turnout drops off a cliff for local races. In many cases these are the races that touch issues closer to home, so what gives? Craig is joined by Eamon Keegan, President of New Prospect Strategies, Johns Creek City Councilwoman Stacy Skinner, and Lynne Riley, President of the Georgia Student Finance Commission, for a comprehensive discussion on these matters and more.
