By me for @PeachPolGa: Georgia’s primary results showed the power of ‘Notlanna’ #gapol

[Jeff Amy @jeffamy]

Oof.

SAD THREAD: Maybe you’ve heard the news: @AtlantaCivicCircle is going under. It’s another casualty of the current, unforgiving journalism ecosystem — a loss that will leave Atlanta with, by my math, ZERO dedicated housing reporters. Let’s talk about what that means... (1/)

This is one of the most unexpected developments of the runoff. #gapol

Interesting, looks like Warnock and Abrams are on different sides in the SOS race (she’s backing Dana Barrett)

My best friend in grade school could recite the dialogue in this scene word-for-word as the Betamax tape played at his house.

The unaltered 1977 Star Wars returns to the big screen February 19, 2027, for a limited 50th anniversary run.
For a taster, here’s the original 12-minute Battle of Yavin exactly as it played in ’77, for the true Star Wars diehards.
Legendary cinema.

That’s a nice save by the ND long stick middie.

How to signal you’re a voting rights ball-knower.

LEGAL MEMO: For the love of all that’s reasoned, can we please pronounce the 1986 NC voting rights case “JING-elz” , and not “GING-elz”!!

This is the final CBS News Radio broadcast, aired between 11 p.m. (the top of the hour is first) and 11:30 p.m. (the final special report).

After 99 years on the air, CBS Radio News has ended.

Good news, if you are trying to get in touch, my cellphone has returned to the land of the living. (However, some of my contacts seem to have gotten trashed.)

My take on @keishabottoms sweeping to the Democratic nomination for Georgia governor #gapol (Thanks to @GeorgiaRecorder for letting me chip in.) https://t.co/uvk2oqQ4Xk

Former Atlanta Mayor Keisha Lance Bottoms wins Democratic nomination for Georgia governor, reports @jeffamy #gapol

[Jeff Amy @jeffamy]

In the end, @KeishaBottoms didn't need a single Fulton County vote. #gapol

[AP Race Calls @AP_RaceCalls]

WASHINGTON (AP) — Keisha Lance Bottoms wins Democratic nomination for governor in Georgia. #APRaceCall at 10:30 p.m. EDT. https://t.co/TS3eIpQI5W

[Jeff Amy @jeffamy]

Some smaller counties outside metro Atlanta are done counting for tonight. @KeishaBottoms is winning 60% to 65% of the Democratic primary vote in those places. #gapol

[Jeff Amy @jeffamy]

This.

It's hard to communicate, costs a lot of money, especially in a nonpartisan race way down the ballot #gapol

[Conor Sen @conorsen]

It’s pretty clear that in the Georgia Supreme Court races, prediction markets were much more confident that voters knew the stakes of the races and would vote in a partisan way, rather than the reality that a lot of voters still had no clue what was going on.

Tonight’s office with @KeishaBottoms #gapol

[Jeff Amy @jeffamy]

@AP @NewsMediaGuild @juanlozano70 @GeorgiaRecorder P.S. I’m still in communications purgatory trying to get my old phone number ported over to a personal account. For now, reach me by my personal email, or use my phone number to call me on WhatsApp.

[Jeff Amy @jeffamy]

After nearly 15 years as a reporter with The Associated Press, I was one of 20 employees around the country laid off Friday.

[Jeff Amy @jeffamy]

@AP @NewsMediaGuild @juanlozano70 For now, I’m going to be doing some freelance work (including covering Georgia’s primary election tonight for @GeorgiaRecorder, so watch for that!) But I hope to find a permanent position soon, and if you need someone who can write, research and think, I’m all ears.
