Purple Ballot: GA and NC, two political peas in a pod? And, an SNL senior writer
Description
The only two swing states in the South may have something in common – the Democratic Party is working hard to turn them blue. Millions of dollars are pouring into battleground states that could decide the presidency – including North Carolina and Georgia.
Plus, Bryan Tucker, a senior writer on SNL, has worked with the show since 2005. He got his start in comedy as a student at UNC and he returns to campus this weekend for ‘Live from Chapel Hill! A Night of Sketch and Improv Comedy.’
Guests
Colin Campbell, Capitol Bureau Chief at WUNC
Maya King, politics reporter at The New York Times
