The Battle for State Legislatures Goes National

More Californians are contributing their dollars and time to elections in states like Michigan and Arizona where the winning party will have control over reproductive rights, redistricting and potentially the outcome of the 2024 presidential election. We’ll talk to Russell Berman about what’s at stake in state races across the country, as the Supreme Court prepares to hear a case that could expand statehouse authority over federal elections. Berman’s recent piece for the Atlantic is “The Next Presidential Election Is Happening Right Now in the States.”

Guests:

Russell Berman, staff writer, The Atlantic

Craig Mauger, state politics reporter, The Detroit News

Mary Jo Pitzl, state policy, politics and elections reporter, The Arizona Republic
