Conventional wisdom says that a strong economy helps incumbents, while a weak economy hurts them. But new research from University of Chicago economist Lubos Pastor titled “Political Cycles and Stock Returns” challenges this idea, suggesting that economic downturns actually push voters toward Democrats, while economic booms favor Republicans.If true, this theory could explain decades of presidential elections—and even the stock market's historic tendency to perform better under Democratic administrations. But does the data back it up?

One week from today, President elect Donald Trump's inauguration will take place, marking his second term as president.  Between election day in November and now, much has occurred. Most recently Trump was granted an unconditional discharge in his highly publicised hush money trial - avoiding penalty, jail time or a fine - but he will still become the first president with a felony conviction.  He's also become increasingly strong on claims that the USA will buy Greenland as a territory, and aim to make Canada its 52nd state. Although the claims may seem outrageous - Trump is also demanding that Panama cede control of the Panama Canal back to the US.  With such brazen claims and events - Producer Evie spoke to Director of Global Studies at the University of Auckland, Chris Ogden about what Trump's upcoming term may look like and what impact these events may have.

The Herle Burly was created by Air Quotes Media with support from our presenting sponsor TELUS, as well as CN Rail, and Fidelity.Greetings, you curiouser and curiouser Herle Burly-ites! You know, there's only ONE Provincial Premier in this country that has bucked the electoral trend since Covid – which is to say, NOT lost the election, or eked out a tiny margin of victory, or just managed to retain a majority with a vastly diminished number of seats.That Premier (and former Herle Burly guest) is Tim Houston of Nova Scotia, who, this week, increased his majority from 34 to 43 seats (out of 55). Crushing the Liberals and making the NDP the new official opposition in the process.  Premier Houston is one of one.Today, we're talking to the leaders and architects of the campaign that helped him do it. A dream team victory lap, as it were: Cameron Mackeen, Tara Miller, and James Mitchener join us today.A few, very brief biographical notes:Cameron MacKeen served as Premier Houston's campaign co-chair for both the 2021 and 2024 elections. He's a managing lawyer with Nova Scotia Legal Aid, and a former Leg. Reporter at the Chronicle Herald.Tara Miller served as co-chair for the 2024 election. She's been recognized by Best Lawyers in Canada for 3 years running … and is a partner, and the “M”, in MDW Law. James Mitchener was campaign manager in both 2021 and 2024. He's currently Premier Houston's Director of Operations and Strategic Relations.I'm going to talk to them about the whole, goddamn successful story today:The only incumbent government in Canada to increase their margin of seats and votes in a high inflation period. How did they do it?The risk/reward calculus for going early. The core strategies. The federal Liberal wedge and why it was so effective.Thank you for joining us on #TheHerleBurly podcast.

The list of reasons why Trump won is getting longer. Some make sense, some do not. We look at the evidence-based ones. One very stark conclusion: not every Trump voter thinks all that positively about the President-elect. It's simply that they find the Democratic Party even more repulsive.The Trump trade is on. The stock market loves the prospect of trade wars, budget-busting tax cuts and mass deportations. Something doesn't add up.Incumbent governments everywhere are having a very hard time. The outgoing Irsh coalition should take note.Old media is as wounded as the opinion poll industry. Podcasting helped win it for Trump. A billion spent on TV ads did nothing for Harris.

America's national and local election results are reflecting a global anti-incumbent sentiment. San Francisco voters chose a new mayor, seeking a fresh start with an untested newcomer. In the East Bay, Oakland's mayor and Alameda County's district attorney are on track to be recalled.

Republicans prevailed in Ohio's must win Senate race, defeating incumbent Democrat Sherrod Brown, with control of the chamber hanging in the balance. AP correspondent Jennifer King reports.

The legislative races in the Grand Forks area have gotten ugly. Incumbent state Sen. Scott Meyer, a Republican from District 18, sent his opponent threatening social media messages. Incumbent state Rep. Emily O'Brien from District 42 has been accused of not living in her district. Now Sarah Grossbauer, a Democratic-NPL candidate in District 42 -- one of O'Brien's opponents -- is dodging questions about drug use after a Republican (and former friend) leaked a photo of her allegedly using cocaine in the bathroom of a downtown Grand Forks bar. Me and Chad Oban talked about it all on this episode of Plain Talk (full disclosure, Oban works for North Dakota United, as does Grossbauer). One complicating factor in all of this is our propensity -- and I really mean "our" because we're all guilty of this -- of being hypercritical of candidates we don't like while rationalizing the behavior of those we do. It has to stop. We can expect more from our elected officials. Auditor Josh Gallion also joined this episode to talk about what he's done during his two terms in office to justify voters giving him a third. Among his arguments? He's modernized the office. "We had walls of filing cabinets with paper records," he said. Now, much of that data has been digitized, and is available online. Gallion also talked about his office's greater efforts to communicate audit information to the public, but at times that's gotten the incumbent in some hot water. His critics in the Legislature, and in local government, have accused him of sensationalizing funding. Gallion responded to those criticisms, and others related to the costs of his office's audits. Finally, Chad and made our 2024 election predictions. How will North Dakota's statewide races shake out? Which ballot measures will be approved? Will the partisan balance in the Legislature change much? And who is going to win the national election? You'll have to listen to find out what we think. And, after Tuesday, maybe you can make fun of us for being wrong. Speaking of which, we have a new way for you to communicate with us. Just give us a call or text at 701-587-3141.

Or are we better off consulting tea leaves? This podcast that will challenge everything you thought you knew about political forecasting.

In this episode of Power Producers Shoptalk, David Carothers interviews Dustin Boss, co-founder of Emerge Apps. Dustin discusses how his experience as a producer led him to develop a suite of technology tools for agents, including OSHA compliance and risk management software.
