The breakdown:

1. New poll gives Republicans an edge in Georgia. 

• A new AJC poll shows every statewide Democratic candidate except U.S. Sen. Raphael Warnock lags well behind the Republican counterpart. 
  • Warnock is falling just behind Herschel Walker by 2 points, which is within the poll's margin of error. 
  • At the top of the ballot, incumbent Gov. Brian Kemp leads Stacey Abrams by 8 points. 

2. Donald Trump goes after Fulton County DA Fani Willis in a new statement. 

• Willis is leading a special grand jury probe into possible 2020 election interference by Trump and his associates.
  • This includes Trump's infamous phone call to Brad Raffensperger to find 11,000 more votes.

3. The Inflation Reduction Act could pump the brakes on a Hyundai plant near Savannah. 

• The new legislation makes new electric vehicles eligible for up to $7,500 in tax credits.
  • But that doesn't apply to foreign-made vehicles. 
  • Georgia's own tax credit for electric vehicles has expired. 
• Adam Van Brimmer says questions about tax credits will likely not scrap the plans to open the electrical vehicle plant by 2025. 
  • The plant would employ about 8,000 people. 

Wednesday on Political Rewind: a representative from Gov. Brian Kemp's campaign will join the panel.
