Host Reed Galen is joined by David Pepper, the Former Chairman of the Ohio Democratic Party and author of the new book, Saving Democracy: A User's Manual for Every American.

Plus, once Americans understand the threat to their democracy…what can they do to save it? If you’d like to connect with The Lincoln Project, send an email to podcast@lincolnproject.us.
