Georgia’s Choice: The Next Governor’s Power
Greg Bluestein and Patricia Murphy sit down with Eric Tanenblatt, former chief of staff to Gov. Sonny Perdue, for Georgia’s Choice, the AJC’s weekly election series.

He also weighs the governing challenges facing Keisha Lance Bottoms and Rick Jackson, including how each would navigate a Republican-controlled legislature and pursue major policy priorities.
