Stacey Abrams drew outrage from her political opponents for going maskless among masked students at a Decatur school, and it could factor into the 2022 campaign.

Plus, our team takes a closer look at Vernon Jones’ decision to drop out of the race for governor and U.S. Sen. Raphael Warnock’s massive campaign haul.
