The Atlanta Press Club is gearing up to host another round of candidate debates later this month, giving Georgia voters a chance to hear directly from contenders ahead of the May 2026 primary elections.
Journalist Donna Lowry, who moderated the 14th Congressional District debate in February, will return as part of the debate series. The Press Club, headquartered in Midtown, has established itself as the go-to venue for Georgia political debates, drawing candidates from both parties to face off in a format that emphasizes substantive policy discussion over soundbites.
The 2026 midterm cycle has drawn significant national attention to Georgia, with competitive races across multiple congressional districts and statewide offices. The Press Club debates serve as one of the few opportunities for candidates to engage directly with each other in a structured, journalistic setting.
Details on specific debate dates, participating candidates, and viewing options will be announced as the April schedule firms up. The Press Club's debate series has historically been one of the best-attended political events in Atlanta, drawing media, political operatives, and engaged citizens to its Midtown headquarters.
