Power Plays: Inside the PSC Race

Hosts Greg Bluestein and Patricia Murphy spotlight one of Georgia’s most overlooked but impactful elections: the race for Public Service Commission. They speak with District 2 Republican incumbent candidate, Comissioner Tim Echols about Georgia Power rate hikes, Plant Vogtle, and the future of energy regulation. Then, Greg sits down with all three Democrats vying to challenge Republican incumbent Fitz Johnson in Atlanta’s District 3. Peter Hubbard, Keisha Waites, and Robert Jones tackle big questions on voter turnout, electricity demand from data centers, and how to keep power affordable for Georgians.
