AZ's Native American Vote: Will History Repeat Itself?
Manage episode 436780489 series 3585693
In the November 2020 election, Joe Biden's victory in Arizona was bolstered by the Native American vote, contributing to his overall win. In this episode, Juan Diego and Sara explore the significant role Native American voters play in U.S. elections, highlighting their historical and ongoing challenges with the federal government. While Native Americans generally lean Democratic, issues such as unemployment, inflation, reproductive health, and federal recognition remain pivotal. Despite their potential electoral impact, Native American communities face substantial barriers to voting, including limited polling access and inadequate outreach from political parties. The discussion includes the importance of genuine engagement and the implications for future elections, particularly in swing states like Arizona.
The episode is co-hosted by political science professor Sara Sadhwani and multimedia journalist J.D. Ramirez.
