Ep.112: Election Season in the US with Sam Schniedman
Episode description
Dunn Street founder Stephen Donnelly was joined by US politics regular Sam Schniedman.
Off-cycle election season is in the air and Sam unpacks which races to keep an eye on this November, with a particular focus on Sam’s home state, Virginia.
Sam breaks down the candidates running, the context in which these elections are taking place, and dives into the issues of the American economy, voter enthusiasm and Democrat’s legislative agenda and its impact on the election outcome.
They also discuss the reason for the current gridlock in passing the infrastructure and social welfare bills through congress and the latest attack on Roe v Wade.
And it’s Octobah, so look out for some post-season baseball chat to wrap things up. Go Sox!
