Why 87% of Congress Is Rigged Before You Vote (Full)
Your vote barely matters in 87% of House races—locked up by gerrymandering and tiny primary turnouts. Jerremy Alexander Newsome and Dave Conley sit down with Rob Richie, the guy who’s been fighting this mess for 30 years at FairVote. He breaks down why redistricting “fixes” are bandaids, how ranked-choice voting and proportional representation actually give power back, and why the 2000 Florida disaster still haunts us. If you’re pissed your ballot feels pointless—this is the episode that arms you with the truth.
