Josh McLaurin aims at more 'for Georgia' | The state ethics commission is now on watch [1]

State Senator Josh McLaurin put his name in the hat to succeed outgoing GOP Lieutenant Governor Burt Jones, announcing his candidacy at a Savannah port terminal Monday. He and I caught up today so I could ask him why he's the guy for the job, what he may have gleaned from watch Jones in the role all this time and why he made it his mission to inform the state Senate what the Trump presidency was up to while eh and his co-horts were in session.
------
A recent $300,000 fine levied against a Stacey Abrams-backed organization is something of a measuring stick, I believe, with the state ethics commission now faced with assessing the wrongs (if any) done by an anti-gay organization accused of improperly benefitting the Kemp campaign in 2018.
We'll be watching.
