Monday on Political Rewind: Georgia Democrats are looking support from the national party in 2022 and 2024. Politico reported that Democrats in the Peach State worry that the national party is not paying enough attention to the new voting laws in Georgia, and that they may lose key races as a result.

Plus, will Herschel Walker lay out clear policy positions soon? GPB News' Stephen Fowler discussed his reporting on the Walker campaign. Apart from a prominent speech at a Trump rally in Perry, the former University of Georgia football star has avoided typical campaign events, fundraisers and media interviews in favor of friendlier conversations on conservative media outlets.

A GPB News analysis finds Walker has done more than two dozen interviews in the eight weeks since launching his campaign, almost exclusively with Fox News personalities like Sean Hannity.

In other news, Gov. Brian Kemp launched a partisan volley to accompany the Braves' first World Series appearance in two decades.
