Geoff Duncan DNC speech: a Republican who votes for Harris isn’t a Democrat, but a patriot 

On today’s episode of The Atlanta Journal-Constitution’s Politically Georgia podcast, Congresswoman Lucy McBath joins us to preview the speech she’ll give tonight at the Democratic National Convention. Since the loss of her son to a gun incident, she’s been a fierce advocate for better gun safety laws, and that will be her subject tonight. 

Then former Georgia Lt. Governor Geoff Duncan discusses the speech ge have to the convention last night. Duncan became one of a number of Republicans who have been in the spotlight as they urge other Republicans to reject Donald Trump and vote for Kamala Harris.  

Plus, the hosts break down the highlights from the third night of the convention: Tim Walz accepting the nomination or vice president, Oprah Winfrey paying tribute to John Lewis, Bill Clinton calling on Democrats to treat those who disagree with them politically with respect, even as he was sharply critical of Donald Trump.
