The GOP Fight for Lieutenant Governor

Greg Bluestein and Patricia Murphy examine why Georgia’s lieutenant governor race has become one of the most revealing contests of the 2026 cycle. They break down the Republican field, from insider-outsider candidates like Greg Dolezal to more establishment-aligned contenders such as John F. Kennedy. Then Greg and Patricia speak with Kennedy about tax relief, redistricting, voting machines and how he would handle one of the most powerful jobs under the Gold Dome.
