We have a remembrance of Congressman David Scott, who died this week at the age of 80. And we hear what three major candidates for Georgia governor are saying about a significant impending issue: How Georgia will count votes after a 2024 law banned QR codes from being used in tabulation takes effect in July. Plus, Hartsfield-Jackson Atlanta International Airport officials say an unidentified "petroleum-based product" has been located at the base of the airport where the Flint River begins. Also, we go to Southeast Georgia where dozens of homes are destroyed, resident are forced to evacuated and firefighters are battling at least two largely uncontained blazes that have scorched tens of thousands of acres so far.
