In the Virginia governor’s race, Republican Glenn Youngkin defeated former Governor Terry McAuliffe in a state that President Biden won by 10 points in 2020. In New Jersey, a state Biden won by 16 points, Democratic Governor Phil Murphy only defeated his Republican challenger by a razor-thin margin. What do these elections tell us about the current state of our politics and the upcoming 2022 midterm elections? Political expert Amy Walter joined Marc and Dany for WTH’s first live podcast episode to discuss Virginia’s recent gubernatorial election, voter sentiment one year into Biden’s presidency, the forces driving American politics, and the upcoming 2022 congressional midterms.
