What an episode! Turns out it was another bad week of polling for Biden, and a stupendously bad week for Democrats on the internet in their quest to understand math. But don’t worry, things are going to get dicey for the GOP this week too...government shutdown, anyone?! Plus…we’ve got an amazing interview with Jeremy Payne of Catalyst California, who gives us a full update on the exciting reforms that may be coming to LA City Council.

So we’ve got 2 experts to help us decipher how we got here, and what we can do moving forward. We promise that you don’t want to miss this one!

It’s our favorite season of the year…election season! And it’s really heating up. This week we got confirmation from the people of Pennsylvania that they hate Conor Lamb just as much as we do, and that made us feel great. We’ll cover all of Tuesday’s wild results and look ahead to Texas and Georgia’s primaries this week. All that, plus a deep dive into New York’s wild redistricting drama!
