May 15, 2022

Radio talk show host Dale Jackson and 256Today CEO Mecca Musick take you through Alabama’s biggest political stories, including:

— With Mike Durant falling in the polls, is the race for the U.S. Senate runoff now wide open?

— Does a new poll in the Alabama gubernatorial race show Governor Kay Ivey is vulnerable?

— Why does the media seem to be supporting more protests against the Supreme Court?

David Driscoll, founder of The Driscoll Group, joins the show to discuss the impact of negative advertising on the political races, as well as everything happening in Alabama politics this week.

Jackson closes the show with a “Parting Shot” directed at people who seem to think abortion is the only issue people will care about in 2022.

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.
