Summary

Georgia has emerged as one of the pivotal swing states anticipated to play a decisive role in the 2024 presidential election. For decades, it was solidly red, reliably delivering electoral votes to Republican candidates. However, this political landscape has shifted dramatically, highlighted by President Joe Biden's narrow victory in 2020. Recently, Bill Hemmer, Co-anchor of FOX News’ 'America's Newsroom', sat down with Dave Anthony to explore the tight race in the Peach State, and its significance for both candidates Vice President Kamala Harris and former President Donald Trump. Hemmer delved into the essential counties, voter demographics, and pressing issues that could sway the outcome. He also discussed the possible influence of former President Trump's legal entanglements in Georgia and his dispute with Governor Brian Kemp on the prospects of a Republican win. We often must cut interviews short during the week, but we thought you might like to hear the full interview. Today on the FOX News Rundown Extra, we will share our entire interview with Bill Hemmer and allow you to hear even more of his take on the historic race between Harris and Trump.
