It’s a weird year. (Ok, it’s a weird decade.) We’ve all got a lot going on, and a lot of emotions, not least about the midterms.
We’ve heard a lot of anxiety, despair, and fear surrounding the midterms. We get it. There’s a lot at stake. But it’s time to dispel those myths offered by pundits and random people on Twitter, and actually talk through the good, the bad, and the inspiring of the 2022 map.
That’s why we’re excited to be kicking off our community events series, The Game Plan, on Tuesday, May 3rd at 4:30 PM. If you’re feeling anxious about what this year holds or wondering whether it’s worth getting involved, this event is for you. (If you are already persuaded that it’s worth getting involved, what are you doing? Sign up for Midterm Madness! And still come to this event.)
Our first guest is Michael Podhorzer, the Assistant to the President for Strategic Research for the AFL-CIO. Mike has long been a leader in the progressive space, particularly when it comes to all things voting rights, election subversion, and combating the MAGA faction. You may have read about the tremendous effort he helped lead to protect the 2020 election results in Time and the New York Times. Mike will be joining Crooked Media Senior Political Director, Shaniqua McClendon to talk about the 2022 map and his data-driven case for optimism.
