About this listen

The pool of candidates running for Georgia Governor has grown by three this week alone.

Former Republican Lt. Gov. Geoff Duncan, now a Democrat, jumped in the race, along with Republican Secretary of State Brad Raffensperger. Then came the lesser known businessman and board chair of the YMCA of metro Atlanta, Clark Dean.

That's who strategists Tharon Johnson and Brian Robinson wanted to talk about with host Lisa Rayam.

Plus, the team discusses the hundreds detained in an immigration raid at the multi-billion dollar Hyundai electric vehicle plant. More than 300 workers are now back in South Korea.

The raid at the factory just outside Savannah was described as the largest immigration enforcement operation carried out at a single location by the United States Department of Homeland Security in its history.

It now puts Georgia Republicans like Governor Brian Kemp in an awkward position. He spent years building relationships with South Korean companies to grow Georgia's economy.

The raid alarmed South Korean leaders and also raised concerns about foreign companies investing in the United States in the future.
