VIDEO: Ivey ends shutdown talk, 2020 election count goes on, Alabama schools prepare to deal with round of coronavirus spikes and more on Alabama Politics This Week

Radio talk show host Dale Jackson and Talk 99.5’s Matt Murphy take you through Alabama’s biggest political stories, including:

— Why did Governor Kay Ivey feel it was necessary to announce there would be no more shutdowns for Alabama?

— Have we almost reached the end of the 2020 election?

— Why are we seeing more coronavirus cases in Alabama, and how will that affect schools and Thanksgiving?

Jackson and Murphy are joined by U.S. Representative Gary Palmer (R-Hoover) to discuss 2020, stimulus bills, what Congress looks like moving forward during another session helmed by Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-CA) and more.

Jackson closes the show with a “parting shot” at those who think the moves by President Donald Trump and the GOP are about overturning an election when it is actually about “working the refs.”

Dale Jackson is a contributing writer to Yellowhammer News and hosts a talk show from 7-11 AM weekdays on WVNN.
