Hello, nerds. My guest today is Jonathan Herzog, and he was one of Andrew Yang's first 10 members of his presidential campaign.

In fact, Yang tapped Herzog to move to Iowa to launch the Yang strategy in that state. Now, obviously, Yang ended up dropping out, but in this interview with Jonathan Herzog, we talk about how Yang built his early strategy.

How did the Yang gang get so strong on Twitter to the point where they can make their own

hashtag trend and other insights to the early stage of that campaign?

More importantly, we jump into Herzog's journey back to New York, where he threw his own hat in the race.

Last year, August 2019, he said, I am running for the congressional seat, the 10th congressional seat

here in New York, which makes up a lot of the west side and other parts of the area.

But he's not going to have an easy run at it. He's running against 15-term congressional powerhouse.

Jerry Nadler took the seat there in 92, which I believe was two years before Jonathan was born. If Jonathan gets

the seat, he'd be the youngest ever at just 25 years old. He's hoping to run and get elected

on things like a freedom dividend, a thousand bucks a month to every American, a data bill of rights

to, you know, keep consumers and have us keep control of our data and maybe tamper down some of the

centralization of wealth

associated with these multi-billionaires that run these pink corporations that use our data.

Also, we jump into what blockchain could look like in the future, but none of this is going to be

easy.

His precinct has 720,000 total potential voters.

A very few amount will actually vote.

He needs 30,000 votes to win on the primary in June 23rd, but it's not going to be easy.

He's fighting nasty lawsuits, a lot of courts, media disinformation campaigns, and more.

So the question is, can Jonathan Herzog get 30,000 votes and win, taking down Powerhouse, Jerry Nadler?

Well, let's hear from the man himself, Jonathan Harzog.
