About this survey

Voters are at the heart of The Atlanta JournalConstitution’s election coverage.

We talk to voters on the campaign trail, conduct polls to gauge sentiment, answer reader questions about voting, and invite Georgians to ask questions about the state of the races as part of our Politically Georgia podcast. This year we’ve taken an additional step to expand our outreach to Georgia voters to make sure we are asking the questions that are important to them. We recently conducted an informal survey to find out what Georgians want candidates to talk about as they compete for votes. We received more than 1,100 responses, including some you can read about in this story. These responses will help us form some of the questions we are asking candidates for a voters guide the AJC is producing with the Atlanta Civic Circle. Reporters will also use the responses to help determine what questions tol ask in upcoming debates. The responses will also help us select topics for stories on the important issues in this election.
