Slain Israeli-American hostage Hersh Goldberg-Polin had ties to Georgia

First up, state Rep. Esther Panitch discusses the connection that slain American Hamas hostage Hersh Goldberg-Polin had to Georgia. And we ask Panitch for her take on whether antisemitism is declining. Plus, what are the issues she sees as crucial to voters in her legislative district? 

Then, Libertarian presidential candidate Chase Oliver joins the show. He talks about what he’s looking to do as a third-party candidate with about two months left in the election cycle. 

And, hosts Tia Mitchell and Bill Nigut talk about what the top lines of a new CNN battleground poll mean for Georgia’s political landscape.
