Episode description

A new survey found that one in five elections officials say they are likely to leave their jobs before the 2024 election. Escalating hostility and conspiracy theories, including 2020's "Big Lie," are to blame. Chronicle reporter Shwanika Narayan joins host Cecilia Lei to talk about how election workers are faring during the midterms, and Contra Costa County's deputy chief clerk recorder, Tommy Gong, shares what's needed to keep election workers safe. | Unlimited Chronicle access: sfchronicle.com/pod Learn more about your ad choices.
