In just two days, Americans will wake up to a stark reminder that they live in a nation divided: roughly half the country will have cast a ballot for a candidate whose vision for America is fundamentally different than their own choice. Ravi takes a step back to discuss this reality, reflecting on the deeply personal nature of political divides and emphasizing the importance of civility and empathy in the days ahead.
He then welcomes Iowa State Rep. J.D. Scholten to dive into the shocking new poll results from legendary Iowa pollster Ann Selzer. J.D. shares his take on what's driving independent and senior women to the polls, how economic and agricultural hardships have influenced rural voters, and what it all means for Election Day.
