It was an interesting conversation to wrestle with and finally have a conversation where we are Bridging with ideas further left than us! We hope you enjoy it as much as we did.

Today we are joined by Dave Trotter, an expert in voting behavior, electoral statistics, and forecasting. He has a Masters in Political science with a focus on voting behavior. We booked this episode last minute and worked hard to release it before the election! The original plan was to have a fast conversation so our poor editor didn’t have to work too hard but there was just so much to ask and learn about from Dave that it ended up being a longer conversation anyway.
Join us as we talk about the upcoming election, Dave make a number of predictions of outcomes, talks to us about voter behavior, and outlines to us HOW to read electoral polls.
