The November 5th elections brought brisk winds of change across the country, including here in Boston. Voters upended an old political dynamic and embraced a historic slate of women and people of color. Also, everybody wins in Kentucky: Democrats narrowly claimed the governorship and Republicans elected the state’s first black attorney general. Plus, Senator Elizabeth Warren scores a key presidential endorsement from fellow Massachusetts lawmaker, Congresswoman Ayanna Pressley.
We discuss these stories and more during our full hour conversation with three contributors to the Mass Politics Profs blog.
