As Midterm elections loom with less than 200 days until Election Day, statistics show that Republicans are likely to have the upper hand in November due largely to GOP voters’ morale. With a new ABC News/Ipsos poll concluding that 55% of Republicans are “very enthusiastic” to cast their vote on Election Day compared to only 35% of Democrats, many strategists and pollers are doubtful Democrats will be able to turn things around. Minnesota Congressman and National Republican Congressional Committee Chairman Tom Emmer joins the Rundown to discuss what issues are driving Democratic voters away, how the campaigning process has been for the GOP, and what American voters can expect if Republicans take back the majority in the House. Young people’s struggles with mental health in the U.S. increased last year according to new data from the CDC, and some are labeling this as a mental health crisis. One such story of crisis is detailed in The Perfect Other: A Memoir Of My Sister, from the perspective of a younger sibling telling the tragic story of her older sister Kait Leddy and her battle with schizophrenia and the stigma that came with it. Author of this memoir, Kyleigh Leddy joins the podcast to share how she wrote this book as a sort of love letter to her sister, her hope the story gives solidarity to those going through similar difficulties and the importance of destigmatizing mental illness to create progress for the future.
