The first episode in a two-part series, we give you the best case for Democrats defying expectations in November and retaining the House and Senate. We had been skeptical of talk about Democrats' momentum until recently when a number of developments have led us to think the party has a chance to keep control of at least one of the two bodies of Congress. In our conversation, we discovered that we think there's a certain voting constituency -- security moms -- who might be an interesting voter group to watch this November.

Next week, we’ll air Part Two and give you the best case for Republicans flipping one or both legislatures and showing that historical precedent prevails as usual. 

What do you think about our case for Democrats? Vote in the poll on Spotify!

In this week's episode, we cover ranked choice voting: what it is, what are its benefits and drawbacks, and how it worked in Alaska's special election this past week. Do you like ranked choice voting?

In the second half of the episode, we cover the contents and delivery of President Biden's speech at Independence Hall in Philadelphia on September 1, 2022. The President talked about the threats to democracy in the US, and we give our assessment of what we think the President was trying to achieve with the speech. What did you think about President Biden's speech?
