    Our Changing Democracy: Non-Partisan Primaries, Internet Voting

    Our Changing Democracy: Non-Partisan Primaries, Internet Voting
    Closed primaries — where only members of that political party can vote — are effectively the final say in the vast majority of House of Representatives elections. Can open primary elections help incentive candidates to work toward consensus?

    And 300,000 people voted via the web in 2020. And, yes, the tech makes elections experts really worried.

    This episode: White House correspondent Asma Khalid, voting correspondent Ashley Lopez, and voting correspondent Miles Parks.

    The podcast is produced by Casey Morell and Elena Moore. Our editor is Eric McDaniel. Our executive producer is Muthoni Muturi.

    We’ve Gotta Talk About The Ohio Disaster (Ep 1950)
    What the heck is going on in East Palestine, Ohio? In this episode, I address the possibility of sabotage in the disaster and chemical leak. I also discuss why the media cannot be trusted to report accurately on this. News Picks: Three more dangerous chemicals found in the Ohio train incident. Do we have a surveillance balloon program too? The AI “misinformation” scheme is heating up. Pete Buttigieg is a disgrace. Remember when the media made up a story about Russia hacking our electrical grid? Our State Department is funding censorship?

    Why Democrats Are Bankrolling Far-Right Candidates

    Why Democrats Are Bankrolling Far-Right Candidates

    Democrats are meddling in Republican primaries this year to an unusual degree, attempting to elevate extremist candidates who they think will be easy to defeat in midterms in the fall.

    Nowhere has that strategy been more divisive than in the election for a House seat in Michigan.

    Guest: Jonathan Weisman, a congressional correspondent for The New York Times.
