  • Roundup: Activists Pitch Women — Secretly Vote For Harris
    Oct 11 2024
    Donald Trump campaigns in Aurora, Colorado today, a city that he's targeted with the brand of anti-immigrant rhetoric that has propelled his reelection effort. And Vice President Harris has a new surrogate out on the campaign trail: Barack Obama, who is calling out Black men for what he sees as sexist reluctance to support Harris.

    And there is an effort to convert Republicans in swing states into quiet Harris supporters, by educating them about the secret ballot and assuring them that their families and communities don't need to know who they voted for.

    This episode: White House correspondent Asma Khalid, campaign correspondent Franco Ordoñez, senior national political correspondent Mara Liasson, and national political correspondent Sarah McCammon.

    The podcast is produced by Jeongyoon Han, Casey Morell and Kelli Wessinger. Our editor is Eric McDaniel. Our executive producer is Muthoni Muturi.
