The mayoral primary is right around the corner, but just because you're registered to vote doesn't mean you'll get to choose a candidate. Pennsylvania is one of only 10 states with a closed primary system, which means independents and third-party voters get left out of the process. Spotlight PA's Kate Huangpu shares a few theories about why we're seeing such a sharp rise in independent voters and whether the state legislature might consider opening up our primaries.

In this episode of Passing Judgment, Jessica Levinson goes solo to break down the latest in legal and political news. She starts by analyzing fresh polling data on President Trump's approval ratings at the 100-day mark of his second term, noting significant public disapproval and discussing what drives this administration's bold use of executive power. Jessica then turns to the Supreme Court's current docket, spotlighting two major education-related cases: one about the legal standard for disability discrimination in schools, and another questioning whether a religious school can be established as a taxpayer-funded charter school. Here are three key takeaways you don't want to miss:Presidential Approval Down, But Base Remains Loyal: Despite approval ratings hovering around 39–43%, President Trump's core supporters (about 33–35%) aren't likely to abandon him, illustrating a growing divide between the general public and a steadfast political base.Economic Policies & Tariffs Fuel Discontent: Many respondents reported feeling worse off economically since Trump's reelection and a majority expressing disapproval of new tariffs and federal agency cuts.Supreme Court Watch—Education and Religious Freedom on the Line: Two major cases could redefine legal standards for disability discrimination in schools and determine whether religious institutions can operate publicly funded charter schools.Follow Our Host: @LevinsonJessica

SEND ME A TEXT MESSAGE NOWIs the future of American democracy truly hanging by a thread? With the presidential race between Kamala Harris and Donald Trump shockingly neck-and-neck, I can't help but question how this could be happening in 2024? Let's confront the unsettling reality of what keeps Trump's base so fervently loyal despite his history of misinformation and lack of clear policy. The stakes have never been higher, and voter apathy among young, Latino, and older demographics only intensifies the urgency of this election. Join me as I express my frustration and disbelief, urging the Wolfpack to step up and make a difference as we edge closer to election day.As Trump's newest string of falsehoods takes aim at the federal response to Hurricane Helene, I dissect these claims and highlight the importance of cutting through the noise of political deception. From misleading accusations against Biden's communication with Georgia's Governor Kemp to unfounded allegations of bias in North Carolina, this episode challenges you to discern truth from fiction. I extend a heartfelt call to action to vote blue and stand firm against chaos, reminding us all to hold onto hope and keep pushing for change. Let's preserve democracy and remain steadfast in our collective fight for a better future.AWorldGoneMadPodcast@gmail.com

In this episode of Finding Common Battle Grounds, we are joined by Vance Reavie from the Independent Center. We start with a lengthy discussion about independent voters - how many there are, what they want in candidates, what issues are important to them, and why they often feel marginalized in US elections. We then turn to the primary question of whether independent voters will decide the Presidential election in 2024. The answer is likely "Yes," but it's complicated because neither of the two major party candidates is particularly appealing to independent voters and hasn't done much to make themselves more attractive. We all agreed that the current primary and then "first past the post" election system ends up disenfranchising moderate voters. We then turn to our second topic - scientific fraud in academic publishing. We talk about the broken incentive structures - "publish or perish" and for-profit publishers who own the copyright to scholars' work and then sell it back to the scholars' universities for billions every year. We also talk about ways to address this issue and even come up with a brilliant technological solution for tracking peer-reviewers' effectiveness that should be monetized. We conclude that peer review is far from perfect but the best system we currently have for advancing science.

The Rich Zeoli Show- Hour 1: 3:05pm- On Thursday, jurors began their second day of deliberation in the Donald Trump “hush money” trial. Trump has been charged with having concealed payments made to adult film star Stormy Daniels. Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg alleges that the payment concealment amounts to falsified business records which ultimately influenced the 2016 election. Will we get a verdict today? What happens if former President Trump is found guilty—and could it impact his election prospects? 3:30pm- Marist National Polling's 2024 Presidential Election poll for the month of May shows that Donald Trump leads Joe Biden 54% to 42% among independent voters. Though the poll shows Biden ahead of Trump nationally (50% to 49%) “among those who say they will definitely vote.” Interestingly, Biden had a 5-point lead with that group in last month's poll. 3:40pm- The Trump campaign released a brand-new advertisement where they insist the only verdict that matters is the verdict at the ballot box in November. 3:50pm- While appearing on Fox News, Andrew C. McCarthy explained the bizarre instructions Judge Juan Merchan gave to the jury prior to deliberation—in order to convict former President Donald Trump, the jury is not required to agree on which crime was committed. And in a piece he wrote for National Review, McCarthy explained, Judge Merchan “effectively concealed what should have been fatal holes in [the prosecution's] case.”

Post Roe Abortion, and Can Conservative Politicians Save America?  It appears that Trump would support a 16-week abortion ban.  Is that enough  to  hang on to 100% of the Pro-Life vote?  Is it too weak? Will independent or undecided  voters think it is too restrictive?  Also, what if God's plan for the Church in America doesn't hinge on Donald Trump?  Will anyone in the Church embrace that?  Have so-called Evangelical Conservative/Republican voters been a good representation of Christ and the Gospel?

Independent voters make up well over 40 percent of the voting public. But you wouldn't know that from media coverage, which focuses almost exclusively on red versus blue. Independents are often overlooked or seen as wishy-washy, bending in the wind. Our guests on this episode say that's a big misconception.  In this show, we look at a huge group of voters, including many young people, who make up a growing slice of the US population. Significantly, the number of American voters identifying as independent is at a record high. Our guests are both political experts. Jackie Salit is the author of Independents Rising and president of Independent Voting, an organization dedicated to bringing respect, recognition, and reform to independent voters. John Opdycke is president of Open Primaries, which campaigns for primary elections in which every American can participate, not just registered Republicans or Democrats.
