Ashwin Ramaswami is the 24-year-old Democrat — and recent Georgetown Law School graduate — campaigning for a seat in the Georgia Senate. Ramaswami, who previously worked to create election protections at the Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency (CISA), quit his job to challenge Senator Shawn Still after the Republican incumbent was indicted for allegedly attempting to overturn the 2020 election results. 

In this episode, Nationly sits down with Ramaswami to talk about connecting with both young and old voters, as well as to discuss the nuances of representing the Indian community in Georgia’s 48th Senate District, in the greater United States, and around the world.

The episode is co-hosted by political science professor Sara Sadhwani and multimedia journalist J.D. Ramirez.
