Meet Bradley Tusk: an investor, political strategist, philanthropist, bookstore
owner, podcaster, author and founder of MobileVoting.org (that’s quite
a resume!). His latest book is Vote
With Your Phone: Why Mobile Voting Is Our Final Shot at Saving
Democracy.
One key takeaway is that the only
election that matters is the primary.
Tusk has a long history in
politics:
- Campaign
manager for Mike Bloomberg’s 2009 mayoral race
- Deputy
Governor of Illinois
- Communications Director for US Senator Chuck Schumer
- Advisor
for Andrew Yang's campaign in the 2021 New York City mayoral
election.
He has also been the country’s
foremost champion of mobile voting since 2017.
"If the electorate is made up
largely of partisan voters. We end up electing tendentious, uncompromising politicians who do
not represent the will of the people. We’re completely polarized, and
nothing gets done. I don’t see how democracy survives absent radically
higher participation…the greatest threat to our democracy is that
nobody votes.”
-Bradley

On Wednesday
