Mike Collins under scrutiny over extremist ties as Charlie Bailey remakes Georgia Democrats

Greg Bluestein and Patricia Murphy examine growing scrutiny of Republican Senate nominee Mike Collins over extremist views expressed by people in his orbit, including his son-in-law and former campaign associates. They also weigh how Collins has responded, what voters have learned from that response and why the issue is drawing particular attention from Jewish voters. Plus, Patricia details Charlie Bailey’s efforts to build a more aggressive, better-funded Georgia Democratic Party ahead of November and the challenges Democrats still face despite a favorable political environment.
