In this episode of Politics in Question, Lee and James discuss the Supreme Court's recent redistricting ruling and what it means for American democracy. The case out of Louisiana — in which the Court's conservative majority struck down a majority-Black congressional district — has helped unleash a mid-decade gerrymandering frenzy, with Texas, California, Florida, and Virginia all redrawing their maps.
What are the political consequences of these decisions? Is mid-decade redistricting the new normal? What does this mean for the future of governance? These are some of the questions Lee and James explore.
Why do we need strong political parties? Are parties failing because of internal choices or outside forces? Why does every election feel existential? These are some of the questions Lee and James explore this week. Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company. See https://pcm.adswizz.com
