Sea Change Radio

Did you know that in last week’s elec­tion, only half of eli­gi­ble vot­ers turned out? And that turnout was sur­pris­ing­ly robust as elec­tion prog­nos­ti­ca­tors expect­ed it to be more in the 35 to 40 per­cent range. Well, smart polit­i­cal strate­gists are try­ing to change the polit­i­cal land­scape by engag­ing the sig­nif­i­cant piece of the pie that is eli­gi­ble non-vot­ers. This week on Sea Change Radio, we speak to John Stoehr, an opin­ion colum­nist at the New Haven Reg­is­ter and pub­lish­er of The Edi­to­r­i­al Board, to get his thoughts on the recent midterm elec­tions. We try to make sense of the results of last Tues­day’s elec­tion, exam­ine vot­er sup­pres­sion tac­tics in places like Geor­gia and Flori­da, and talk about the impact of door-to-door canvassing.
