Summary

James and Al break down election law and court challenges with Cass Sunstein before being joined by an all star panel with Jill Abramson, Paul Begala, and Tara Setmayer to help us digest what we experienced on election day. With no official call made, is it in the bag for Biden and McConnell? It’s a whole new era. Will we be stuck in the same battles of the last four years, or can we expect to build back bigger, bolder, and better in 2021?
