On this edition of "Political Rewind," Democrats finally have something to cheer about, chalking up important victories in Virginia and New Jersey while, in Georgia, Dems cut into the dominant GOP majority in the legislatures. The Atlanta mayor’s race heads into a runoff and once again city voters are confronted by a contest divided on racial lines. Also, GOP gubernatorial candidate Casey Cagle picks a fight with Decatur over its treatment of undocumented immigrants. Plus, on the one year anniversary of Donald Trump’s victory, we’ll look at how Georgia voters feel about him today.

We also discuss the tone of political rhetoric today, which as it turns out, was the subject of Patricia Murphy's recent Roll Call opinion piece
