Lincoln Mitchell is guest host.
Part 1:
We talk with Jerry Goldfeder, an election Lawyer about the upcoming general election. We all sense a mood of optimism and dread, where we hope to be rid of Trump, and dread that he may win.
There is concern about recent court rulings that curtail voting rights and procedures. These serve to depress the votes of minorities, the old, the young, and the more liberal voters. They also create distrust in the process.
We discuss what can be done to counter these effects of the MAGA campaign. We should all be prepared for a rough voting process and certification.
Part 2:
We talk with Connie Chan, a member of the San Francisco Board of Supervisors, and is up for re-election.
We discuss the main issues that will be important for the Board. We also hear about the divisive messaging being put out by the opposition to progressive members of the Board. The opponents have infinite resources, because they are supported by the very rich "tech bros" who want the power for land grab purposes
