Polls, Persuasion, and Precincts: Breaking Down the Final Stretch

Will infrequent voters turn out this November? Ravi shares his prediction as he dives into the latest election updates, from new insights on the Harris campaign's ground game and the inner workings of political PACs and influencers to what voters can learn from Trump's recent media appearances. Next, Ravi welcomes Kim Wehle back to the show to explore the reality of election fraud claims, including JD Vance's recent comments on the 2020 election and why Hunter Biden's name is back in the news. They then take a broader look at the state of election reform, focusing on changes to election laws in key states like Georgia, Michigan, and Pennsylvania, and how they may impact the voting process in November. Finally, Ravi and Kim turn to Kim's new book, Pardon Power: How the Pardon System Works and Why, and discuss Trump's promise to pardon January 6th participants and the legal ramifications of these claims.
