Connections: What can we learn from the California recall election?

California Governor Gavin Newsom has survived the recall attempt, and will continue as governor in one of the country's bluest states. What should Democrats across the country learn from this? What should Republicans learn? What does the data tell us about what happened?

Our guest:

  • Joseph Burgess, data curator at the Roper Center for Public Opinion Research at Cornell University
  • Paul Hypolite, founder of Leading with Our Values, a public affairs firm committed to economic, racial, gender, and environmental justice
