A Republic, If You Can Keep It

Presidential Campaign Reset (Guest: Clara Hendrickson)


Listen Later

An estimated 15,000 packed a hangar and out the door at the Harris-Walz Detroit Metro rally
  • The Harris-Walz ticket launches with crowds matching Obama 2008 and Trump 2016
  • Hours before the new Democratic ticket attracted 15,000 to a hangar at Metro Airport, JD Vance enthused a crowd of several dozen in Macomb County.
  • Donald Trump spent the week mean-Truthing, holding a bizarre and distortion/lie-filled news conference, and resting up for his one-and-only campaign event in the critical swing state of … Montana?
  • Michigan’s primary election sets up some critical showdowns in 4 congressional races which could decide control of the U.S. House and Senate as well as the Michigan Legislature.
  • Another domino falls in the state-by-state criminal cases against the fake electors, with disbarred attorney Jenna Ellis flipping in Arizona.
  • And a national Republicans for Harris-Walz organization is unleashed.
  • Helping sort out the primary election results in Michigan is returning friend-of-the-pod, Detroit Free Press political reporter Clara Hendrickson. 

    Clara covers Michigan politics with a focus on the governor’s office and the state Legislature. She has previously covered voting rights, election administration and redistricting in Michigan. She came to The Detroit Free Press by way of Report for America – an initiative of The GroundTruth Project – to fact-check Michigan issues and politics in partnership with PolitiFact during the 2020 election. She previously worked as a research analyst at the Brookings Institution and freelance journalist in Washington, D.C.
