Keisha Lance Bottoms makes history as first Black woman elected Georgia governor
Her victory follows Georgia reelecting its first Jewish senator, Democrat Jon Ossoff, alongside its first Black senator, Raphael Warnock
What the coverage shows
All five outlets frame the story as Keisha Lance Bottoms making history as Georgia’s first Black woman governor, and most also identify her as a Democrat. Newsweek and NPR both add that the governorship shifted from Republicans, with NPR alone stressing it as the first Democratic win in more than 20 years. Al Jazeera is the only outlet in this set to mention her as a former adviser to Joe Biden, while The Guardian alone foregrounds Rick Jackson as a billionaire and says he had been favored.
