Summary

Our pop-up podcast series on the U.S. elections, hosted by Ryan Heath, kicks off at the (mostly-virtual) Democratic National Convention, and dives into the current debate over voting by mail and the challenges of voting from abroad. You'll hear from former U.S. Secretary of State and ex-presidential candidate John Kerry; Julia Bryan, chair of Democrats Abroad; Kelley Robinson, executive director for Planned Parenthood Action Fund; Ben Wikler, Wisconsin Democratic party state chair; Moe Vela,  director of administration for Joe Biden when he was vice president; and POLITICO's Chief Washington Correspondent Ryan Lizza. We'll publish a new episode in this pop-up series every Tuesday until election day. And, of course, EU Confidential will be back this and every Thursday as usual. Hosted on Acast.
