On today’s episode of The Atlanta Journal-Constitution’s Politically Georgia podcast, hosts Patricia Murphy, Greg Bluestein, Tia Mitchell and Bill Nigut are joined by Atlanta Mayor Andre Dickens and former President Jimmy Carter’s grandson, Jason Carter to review the second night of the Democratic National Convention. They discuss the speeches by Michelle and Barack Obama, how the Georgia delegation created a viral moment by having rapper Lil Jon join surprise the convention with a live performance during the state’s roll call vote, and the emphasis the party is putting on the next generation of Democratic leaders, as exemplified by Jason Carter’s speech.
