Episode Details

Washington D.C. is in political upheaval as it heads into a rare primary with open races for mayor and U.S. delegate — the first time since 1990. A crowded Democratic mayoral field pits progressive Councilwoman Janeese Lewis George against establishment favorite Kenyan McDuffie, with even outgoing Mayor Bowser leaning toward McDuffie. The race is further complicated by President Trump’s aggressive federal meddling, including threats of a takeover if Lewis George wins. Meanwhile, the congressional delegate race to replace Eleanor Holmes Norton is heating up, amplifying the stakes. With a new ranked-choice voting system in place, results won’t be immediate — and deep socio-economic divides continue to shape the district’s politics.
