As states see a record number of early voters, including New York and key battleground states, Ari Berman, who covers voter access as a senior reporter at Mother Jones, joined Errol to discuss how the Trump administration has been restricting access to the ballot box. And he explained the consequences of a 2013 Supreme Court ruling on the Voting Rights Act of 1965 and what Amy Coney Barrett’s confirmation means for the future of ballot access. He also talked about how the pandemic may permanently change how Americans vote.
