In this episode, Brad interviews Doug Pagitt, Executive Director of Vote Common Good, about the Democratic Party’s challenges with religious voters. They discuss the results of a major new survey showing that many Christians view the Democratic Party as hostile to religion, and explore the importance of identity, inclusion, and outreach in political organizing.

The conversation covers the need for Democrats to better engage faith communities, the role of narrative and belonging in voter behavior, and the impact of recent changes to the Johnson Amendment on churches’ political activity.

Doug shares insights on how candidate quality, intentional outreach, and building a “big tent” coalition are crucial for future electoral success, emphasizing that both religious and non-religious voters must feel welcomed and valued within the party.
