June 5, 2022

Radio talk show host Dale Jackson and Yellowhammer News’ Yaffee take you through Alabama’s biggest political stories, including:

— Will lawmakers address school safety in Montgomery anytime soon?

— Why won’t U.S. Senate candidate Katie Britt debate U.S. Representative Mo Brooks (R-Huntsville)?

— Will a one-vote margin in an Alabama State Senate race in Lee County spark people to actually get out and vote?

FM Talk 106.5’s Jeff Poor joins the show to weigh in on crossover voting, the U.S. Senate race and everything happening in Alabama politics this week.

Jackson closes the show with a “Parting Shot” directed at Democrats in Alabama who appear to have completely given up on winning any major elections in the state.

Dale Jackson is a contributing writer to Yellowhammer News and hosts a talk show from 5-9AM weekdays on WVNN and on Talk 99.5 from 10AM to noon.
