Dear Mother Jones Reader:
What a wild campaign season we’re living through. Cratering presidential approval ratings. Foreign and home-grown disinformation campaigns. Data centers, Iran, gas prices, fears of ICE agents at the polls, and so much more. Is your head spinning, too?
Then let’s get together and talk it through with some of Mother Jones’ smartest and savviest journalists, including voting rights correspondent Ari Berman and Tim Murphy, who focuses on power-building and organizing. They’ll answer your questions, and mine, in an online discussion on Tuesday, October 20, at 7 p.m. ET/4 p.m. PT You can register here.
Ari has been closely monitoring attempts to interfere with the election, such as voter intimidation and disenfranchisement, while Tim has been reporting on some of the closest campaigns in the country, including the US Senate contest in Texas and the gubernatorial race in Iowa. And depending on what other stories break in the meantime, we might invite another journalist or two as well!
I hope you can join us as they share their insights about what may happen in the coming weeks. You can register for the Tuesday, October 20, discussion here. Once you register, you will receive an email with the Zoom link, and you can send us questions you’d like Ari and Tim to answer.
See you soon!
