Project 2025 Goes All The Way Down The Ballot (with Rep. Sara Jacobs and Carrie Knapp)

The Suburban Women Problem

The election is less than three weeks away and early voting is already open in many states. If you’re listening to this podcast, chances are you agree that a Kamala Harris presidency is absolutely crucial. Maybe you’ve put up a yard sign, or talked to some people you know about what’s on the line.

But what about the down-ballot races? No matter who wins the presidency, electing Democrats up and down the ballot is just as important. If we get a President Harris, she’ll need a House and Senate that can help her achieve her campaign promises. And on the terrifying chance we get a President Trump, we’ll need our system of checks and balances more than ever.

It goes beyond Congress too. State representatives (like our own Rep. Jasmine Clark), school boards, mayors, judges, and other local representatives have the power to drastically change our lives.
This week, our guests Congresswoman Sara Jacobs and local organizer Carrie Knapp shared their thoughts about why voting up and down the ballot is so important. All of us, even voters in dark red or blue states, can make a big difference.

So request a sample ballot, do your research, and become a resource for the people you know. Let’s vote all the way from the tippy top to the very bottom of the ballot this year!
