Summary

In this special episode, Ana takes a field trip to Chicago to visit with a group of voters long misunderstood by the coastal elites but who played a pivotal role in the 2016 election: that’s right... Hillary voters. What makes them tick? Why do they have such affection for her? Will they continue to support her, no matter what? Also, we try to humanize them a bit: Hillary voters may seem different, but really, they’re just like you or me! Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

1:03.4

Why do you support this person?

1:06.1

What has supporting this person done for you and your relationships?

1:13.8

The answers I got aren't going to shock you, but I think they're worth hearing because

1:34.8

And literally, there are more Hillary supporters than Trump supporters.

1:38.7

So figuring out what they want and what this past year has been like for them seems like

1:44.3
