HoosLeft #24: Madam Governor vs. Madman Governor

Guest: Dr. Jennifer McCormick

We’ll talk about her time in the classroom, in administration, AND in public office. I’ll ask about her positions on reproductive freedom, “woke” culture, legal weed, the US-Mexico border, China, policing, climate change, and the IEDC. We’ll talk GOTV strategy and I’ll press her about the party switch.
