Creeping Authoritarianism?
from Poll Hub · host Lee Miringoff, Hunter Petro, Mary Griffith, Jay DeDapper
We just released new numbers from the battleground states of Georgia, Arizona, and North Carolina. While very little has changed since our polls from those states a few weeks back, there is a striking finding when we look at how voters are thinking about non-Presidential races on some ballots.Then, are authoritarian regimes really on the rise? We talk with author and professor @AnneMeng_ from @UVA about her research on the rise, or lack thereof, of far-right leaders around the world. Is the threat here in the U.S. real, inflated, or imaginary. Or all three?Finally, Halloween is just one week away, and we stick with our theme and wrap the show with another frightening fun fact.
