Robots to patrol Georgia jail | FOX 5 News
SUMMARY: The Cobb County Sheriff’s Office has introduced high-tech robots at the Cobb County Jail as part of a pilot program aimed at enhancing security. Standing nearly six feet tall, these robots feature advanced technology, including 360-degree cameras, night vision, and heat detection. Sheriff Craig Owens believes this is a pioneering move in U.S. jails, as the robots will assist with perimeter patrols and security rounds while allowing deputies to focus on other duties. The robots operate autonomously but can be remotely controlled for complex tasks. The 90-day pilot program is cost-free and aims to improve safety and efficiency within the facility.
The Cobb County Jail has gotten a major high-tech robotic upgrade. Sheriff Craig Owens says this will be a gamechanger.

Trump hosts town hall, rally in Georgia | FOX 5 News
SUMMARY: On Election Day, both Vice President Kamala Harris and former President Donald Trump are focusing on energizing their bases as they approach the finish line for the White House. Harris is holding a town hall in Pennsylvania, while Trump is in Georgia, rallying supporters in Zebulon and Delo. Trump aims to mobilize typically non-voting Georgians, especially young men across ethnic groups. Controversial statements from former aides have labeled Trump as “fascist,” sparking backlash from supporters who find such comparisons inappropriate. Trump criticized the Biden administration’s immigration and economic policies, promising to address these issues if reelected.
Former President Donald Trump held a town hall in Zebulon, Georgia focused on religious freedom and will speak at a rally in Duluth later Wednesday evening.

Harris campaigns to keep Black voters on her side, especially the men | Georgia
SUMMARY: Vice President Kamala Harris’ success hinges on minority voters, particularly in battleground states. While she retains majority support from Black and Hispanic voters, Donald Trump has gained traction, notably among young Black men, leading to a 12% swing in favor of Trump compared to 2020. Recent polls indicate only 78% of Black likely voters support Harris, dropping to 76% with third-party candidates included. Former President Obama is campaigning to boost Black voter turnout, though his efforts appear ineffective. In Georgia, where Black voters represent 30% of registered voters, early voting indicates strong participation, but Trump currently leads in polls by 1.5%.
