With only a week left before the next District Attorney for the Macon-Bibb Judicial Circuit is voted in, the candidates Greg Winters and David Cooke are each trying to convince voters that he has the right record to effectively prosecute crimes in the area.
The candidates visited 13WMAZ studios for a debate Monday evening and a follow-up discussion.
