The national conversation focuses on the wars being waged by the Republicans and Democrats, against each other.

In this episode of the Independent Voter Podcast, Chad and Cara talk about the Gerrymandering battle growing beyond Texas and California, a retired attorney who has taken a Florida voting rights case all the way to the Supreme Court, and how the war on the rights of independent voters could be hitting a critical moment in the arc of our democracy.
