2025 Election Preview with David Axelrod

from Impolitic with John Heilemann · host Audacy | Puck

John welcomes his pal and Hacks On Tap co-host David Axelrod to preview November 4's marquee contests. The former Obama chief strategist, current CNN chief political analyst, and bestselling author of "Believer: My Forty Years in Politics" explains why he’s confident Democrats will run the table in tomorrow's off-year elections — with victories for Zohran Mamdani in the New York mayor’s race, Abigail Spanberger and Mikie Sherrill in the Virginia and New Jersey gubernatorial campaigns, and Gavin Newsom’s redistricting initiative in California — but thinks his party should be cautious about drawing any grand conclusions from its impending clean sweep.
