MI Attorney General Dana Nessel on Trump's Assault on Our Electoral System and the Battle to Protect the Midterms

from The Back Room with Andy Ostroy · host Radio Free Rhinecliff and Andy Ostroy

Dana Nessel has served as Attorney General for the state of Michigan since 2019. Prior to that she served as a Wayne County Prosecutor for over a decade. In her private practice, she was lead attorney for the plaintiffs in DeBoer v. Snyder, a precursor to the landmark ruling in Obergefell v. Hodges, which codified same-sex marriage and granted adoption rights to same-sex couples nationwide. Against the backdrop of Trump's relentless assault on our electoral system, the Attorney General and I discuss election integrity and what to expect in Michigan and elsewhere in the 58 days between now and the November midterms.
