In this week's episode, we cover ranked choice voting: what it is, what are its benefits and drawbacks, and how it worked in Alaska's special election this past week. Do you like ranked choice voting? In the second half of the episode, we cover the contents and delivery of President Biden's speech at Independence Hall in Philadelphia on September 1, 2022. The President talked about the threats to democracy in the US, and we give our assessment of what we think the President was trying to achieve with the speech.
