He also addressed some of the criticisms leveled against his administration while making a strong case for why voters should return him to office.
What made the conversation especially compelling was Pitts' direct and unfiltered commentary regarding his opponent. He spared no feelings as he pushed back against Ivory's campaign narrative and questioned her readiness to lead one of Georgia's largest and most influential counties. The exchange offered listeners a clear look at the intensity and high stakes surrounding the runoff election.
Dr. Dee Dawkins-Haigler guided the discussion through key issues facing Fulton County residents, ensuring listeners heard directly from the incumbent chairman about his vision for the county's future and the reasons he believes voters should entrust him with another term.
