So, what just happened?

In this episode of 365 Amplified, Stephanie Diaz De Leon, Omar Waheed, Nicholas Garton and Rob Chappell discuss the aftermath of the election at the national and local level. We examine Donald Trump’s surprising sweep of battleground states, Democratic voter turnout, and the broader implications for communities of color and working-class voters. The conversation also addresses the impact of rising costs of living and the Democratic Party’s challenges in resonating with key voter bases.

We also get into local Wisconsin politics, analyzing school referendums, city funding, and how new legislative maps could reshape the way the Assembly works. They touch on how media influence and messaging shape political narratives, especially in the context of misinformation. The episode closes with a lighter discussion of favorite music albums, from Jay-Z to Led Zeppelin, offering a refreshing contrast to the weighty political conversation.

Tune in for an in-depth discussion that brings the big picture down to a local level, examining the social, political, and economic factors influencing voters in this pivotal election year.
