About this listen

On this live edition of Political Breakfast, we cover how two-time Democratic nominee for governor Stacey Abrams announced that she is not running for office in 2026.

Abrams said in a statement that instead she'll continue her work fighting against what's happening in Washington, as "since January 2025, we have watched our nation descend into authoritarianism.”

There's already a crowded field on the Democratic side, including familiar names like former Atlanta Mayor Keisha Lance Bottoms and former DeKalb County CEO Michael Thurmond.

Democratic strategist Tharon Johnson, Republican strategist Brian Robinson and host Lisa Rayam react.

Plus, a quick look ahead at some priorities for Georgia's 2026 legislative session, which starts on Monday.
