It has been 10 years since the passing of our beloved Gwen Ifill.

We, like so many of you, miss her every day. Her smile, her laugh, her vision and her leadership. But all of that continues to guide our journalism today. Ten years later, as we cover the news, we still ask ourselves one crucial question: What would Gwen do?

@KevOnStage Step one, is acknowledgement.

[Brian Kemp @BrianKempGA]

Georgia voters and voters across America have spoken.

I’d like to first congratulate Governor-elect Keisha Lance Bottoms on her historic victory last night. Marty, the girls, and I are praying for the governor-elect and her family as they lead our state over the next four years.

I’d also like to thank Rick Jackson and all of our Republican candidates for running spirited campaigns and putting themselves forward, and congratulate Senator Ossoff on a hard-fought win.

Republicans now have the opportunity, and responsibility, to heed the will of voters and learn from last night’s results. I firmly believe the conservative principles of our party lead to greater freedom, security, and prosperity for all Americans—and it’s time we get back to those principles in the months and years to come.

BREAKING NEWS: Governor Brian Kemp will NOT call a special session to change the powers of the executive branch or do redistricting. #gapol https://t.co/Njf56VfEOb

Here is his statement: “The voters of our state have spoken. As long as I’m governor, we will always respect the results of secure, accessible, and fair elections, and also abide by the laws and constitution of our state. I will not be calling a special session of the Georgia General Assembly in order to curtail executive branch powers or debate redistricting changes. There are, however, budgetary issues that may need to be addressed before the convening of the regular session in January. My office will continue to monitor and evaluate this situation and keep our partners in the General Assembly apprised of the state’s fiscal outlook in the days to come.”
