You Decide with Errol Louis

Rebecca Traister: Women, Politics and the Uncertain Road Ahead


Listen Later

How will women vote in 2020? What will happen with down-ballot elections? And what do Maine voters truly think of Senator Susan Collins?

Rebecca Traister, who has written about women in politics at length, joined Errol ahead of Super Tuesday to try to answer those questions. She talks about the role of women’s rage in politics, warns about the media’s intense focus on the race for the White House and analyzes the different campaigns, including Elizabeth Warren’s. She also explores what we should learn from the 2018 midterm elections as we head deeper into the primary season. And she discusses her recent profile in New York Magazine of Maine Senator Susan Collins.
