The first leg of the 2016 election marathon is, finally, almost over. As the primaries come to a close, the elections podcast crew talks about what to expect from the final contests and what the Trump-related controversies of the past week mean for the general election. Also, FiveThirtyEight chief economics writer Ben Casselman joins the podcast to take a look at the latest lackluster jobs report and how the economy affects elections.
P.S. We’re coming to California! We’ll be in San Francisco on June 23 and Los Angeles on June 25. More information is here.
