Both candidates running for Georgia governor appeared at the same event Tuesday: the Georgia Chamber of Commerce’s Congressional Luncheon in Macon.

Congressional leaders spoke, but the headliners were Democrat Stacey Abrams and Republican Brian Kemp. Each made their pitches to business leaders and politicians at their first event together.
