Music & Mal: on the road with a grassroots southern Congressional race

I'm spending a few days in coastal South Carolina where my friend Mal Hyman is working overtime on the "retail political trail" - having to get out to shake hands and meet people on-one-on as opposed to taking PAC money to flood TV and radio airwaves. It's a noble endeavor, but because of the size of his district, a gargantuan task that could be better alleviated by eliminating gerrymandering and uncapping The House, which he and I discuss a bit. Today, though, we mostly just get a sense of his "ground game," and part of that was his longtime friend, Randy Cahall, guitar in-hand, coming in for a couple weeks to help his buddy Mal out. Randy shares his talents (and a couple of really good protest movement-era songs. A nice change-of-pace from hearing me drone on and on, right? Oh, also the GOP-heavy Georgia Supreme Court smacked down state GOP efforts to save those 11th-hour MAGA-packed elections board rules. Sort of delicious to hear it from Marc Elias via Democracy Docket.
