Are Primaries What's Wrong with American Politics?
Category: News & Politics

Description:

Primaries elections are good, right? It’s how we hold the party accountable and raise up progressives! It turns out there’s more to the story.

This week on “How We Got Here,” Max and Erin explore how party primaries have led to the success of more extreme candidates, the passage of fewer polices, and an increase in American polarization. From the Tea Party and Ron Paul to decidedly not "tea" parties with Texas House Speakers, this week’s episode probes the dangers of primaries, and why the U.S. seems to be the last country in the world to catch on.
