Dear Uneducated Voters - the Time for Willful Stupidity is Over Oct 07, 2026

Show notes

With 27 days until the election, Lurie doesn't hold back in this urgent episode about the difference between educated and uneducated voters. She focuses heavily on Michigan's Senate race, calling out Black voters who appeared on MSNBC saying they don't know enough about Abdul El-Sayed to vote for him. Lurie breaks down Mike Rogers' voting record—including his 19 votes against prescription drug benefits and votes to end ACA subsidies—and contrasts it with El-Sayed's healthcare advocacy. She also covers spicy debate moments from Maryland, Maine, Kansas, and Georgia, where Democrats are finally bringing the heat. This isn't just about scolding voters; it's about making sure everyone understands that voting isn't about perfection, it's about asking which candidate will help your community most or hurt it least. Lurie gets real about why 'both sides are the same' thinking is dangerous when one side is actively cutting healthcare, education funding, and civil rights protections.
