On this episode: For over 75 years, the American Bar Association has played a key role in evaluating the professional qualifications of federal judicial nominees. But its involvement has long been a source of debate—particularly among Republicans, with concerns about bias dating back to the Reagan administration. In this episode, University of Richmond law professor Carl Tobias explains how the ABA's process works, why some view it as a valuable independent resource, and why others argue it should be excluded from the nomination process altogether. We also discuss the implications of recent moves to curtail the ABA's access and what that could mean for judicial confirmations going forward.Learn more about the ABA: https://ballotpedia.org/ABA_ratings_during_the_Trump_administration Complete a brief 5 minute survey to review the show and share some feedback: https://forms.gle/zPxYSog5civyvEKX6 Sign up for our Newsletters: https://ballotpedia.org/Ballotpedia_Email_Updates Stream "On the Ballot" on Spotify or wherever you listen to podcasts.

On this episode: New Jersey's gubernatorial race is taking shape following a pair of high-profile primaries on June 10th that set the stage for one of 2025's most closely watched elections. Democrat Mikie Sherrill secured her party's nomination with broad statewide support, while Republican Jack Ciattarelli dominated his field with the backing of Donald Trump and institutional GOP support. The match-up reflects deeper trends in both parties, from Democratic coalition-building to the state GOP's evolving relationship with President Donald Trump. Brent Johnson, a political reporter for NJ.com, breaks down what the primary results reveal about New Jersey's political landscape, the dynamics of the upcoming general election, and the state-level issues and national forces likely to influence the race ahead.

On this episode: Constitutional scholar Sai Prakash of the University of Virginia joins us to explore the origins, evolution, and modern realities of presidential power. Drawing on historical debates from the Constitutional Convention, Prakash outlines how early framers envisioned a limited executive—primarily tasked with enforcing laws—and how that vision has shifted over time. Prakash and our Host, Norm Leahy, examine landmark developments including the rise of popular mandates, the use of emergency declarations, expansions of war powers, and the increasing use of executive action in areas where Congress has not legislated. Prakash also discusses the courts' role in interpreting executive authority, the limits of congressional oversight in the polarized era we find ourselves in today, and the potential for constitutional or statutory reforms. Whether you're curious about originalism, the concept of an “imperial presidency,” or how different branches of government interact today, this episode offers a wide-ranging look at one of the central tensions in American governance.***On The Ballot is a conversational podcast featuring interviews with guests across the political spectrum.

Show Notes: In this power‑packed episode, Justin sits down with Karla Wagner of AxMITax.org to pull back the curtain on the petition that promises to wipe out every property tax in Michigan and replace them with a sales‑tax‑powered funding model. They tackle the big questions head‑on—how schools, cops, and roads would be funded, why backers say the plan would end tax‑driven foreclosures for good, and what a 60 % voter‑approval hurdle means for future tax hikes. Karla shares inside intel on the grassroots signature drive, the constitutional language, and the political firefight already brewing in Lansing, while Justin pushes for straight answers on potential revenue gaps and whether the amendment could survive a court challenge.

The challenge was brought by a District 3 voter. Although Blackman’s name remains on the ballot due to early voting, polling places will notify voters of his disqualification. Blackman was one of four Democrats aiming to challenge Republican incumbent Fitz Johnson. This comes amid ongoing legal disputes over PSC election methods, with claims of diluted Black voting strength under the current statewide election system. STORY 2: Hot Dog Lunch Support Cherokee County Seniors Cherokee County Senior Services and Stand Up For Seniors are hosting a hot dog luncheon on June 5 from 11:30 a.m. to 1 p.m. at the Cherokee County Senior Center in Canton. For a $5 donation, attendees can enjoy a meal with proceeds supporting the Last Stop Program, which provides emergency financial aid to low-income seniors. The event offers dine-in, takeout, and advance reservations. Organizers aim to help seniors with essentials like housing, utilities, and medical costs. The luncheon is a community effort to support vulnerable seniors and senior veterans in Cherokee County. STORY 3: Georgia Supreme Court Upholds Gun Carry Restrictions for Those Under 21 The Georgia Supreme Court unanimously upheld the state’s law prohibiting individuals under 21 from carrying handguns in most public places. The decision rejected 20-year-old Thomas Stephens’ challenge, citing the state constitution’s “manner clause,” which allows the legislature to regulate how weapons are carried. Stephens argued for stricter federal standards on personal liberties, but the court declined to apply them, emphasizing state-specific interpretation. Justice Andrew A. Pinson noted that Stephens failed to meet the heavy burden of proving the law unconstitutional, reaffirming prior rulings supporting restrictions on where guns can be carried.

The Cherokee Sheriff’s Office reported that Brennan’s car veered out of its lane, causing the crash. The ambulance’s front passenger sustained non-life-threatening injuries, while the patient in the ambulance was seriously injured. Both were transported to Wellstar North Fulton Medical Center. The cause of the accident is still under investigation. STORY 5: Two Cherokee County Grads Receive Scholarships to Study Education Two Cherokee County Class of 2025 graduates, Rylee Pieterse from Woodstock High and Megan Torres from Etowah High, have each received $2,500 scholarships from Towne Lake Academy to pursue education degrees. Pieterse will study early childhood education at Kennesaw State University, having completed a teaching practicum and volunteering with local schools.

Today, Jess, Morgan, and Andy unpack weekend elections in Romania, Poland, and Portugal—where voters are navigating domestic frustrations, regional security fears, and the specter of Russian influence. In Romania, centrist Nicușor Dan defeated far-right nationalist George Simion with a pro-EU, anti-corruption message. Poland will head into a June presidential election runoff between centrist Rafal Trzaskowski and far-right challenger Karol Nawrocki, while in Portugal, a far-right party surged to 20%, shaking up the political landscape.Are these results driven by domestic political pressures—or do they reflect a broader European response to the war in Ukraine? Is European support for Ukraine holding strong, or is it increasingly tied to who's in power in Washington? And how do concerns about ballot access and disinformation shape the future of European democracy?Check out the answers to these questions and more in this episode of Fault Lines.Check out the sources that helped shape our experts' opinions. https://www.bbc.com/news/live/c74q57kydgethttps://www.npr.org/2025/05/17/nx-s1-5400392/elections-in-poland-and-romania-could-shape-the-future-of-europe-and-ukrainehttps://www.reuters.com/world/europe/romanians-vote-presidential-run-off-that-could-widen-eu-rifts-2025-05-17/ Follow our experts on Twitter: @NotTVJessJones@morganlroach@AndyKeiserLike what we're doing here?
