The Democratic Party’s Voter Registration Crisis

Andrew Walworth, Tom Bevan and Carl Cannon discuss a new New York Times article on what the paper calls the Democratic Party’s “Voter Registration Crisis". And, they discuss new polling from Texas on the GOP Senate primary contest between incumbent John Cornyn and challenger Ken Paxton, and how the GOP nominee would fare against possible Democratic candidates including Colin Allred, Beto O’Rourke and Jasmine Crockett. Then, they talk about a new Washington Post poll showing that 69 percent of D.C. residents oppose Trump taking control of the city’s police department, and Elon Musk’s signaling that he is not going to start a third political party and may instead end up supporting Vice President J.D. Vance for president. Plus, they chat about a new Time magazine profile of Democratic candidate for New York Mayor - Zohran Mamdani, and what changes his leadership might make in a city where rent control and high taxes are already in place. And then, Tom talks to RCP contributor Richard Porter about Illinois Governor J.B. Pritzker, who has emerged as a leading opponent of President Trump’s crackdown on illegal immigration.
