84 DM Returns: The 2024 Election Edition Featuring Katie Blaxberg!

11/17/2024
For the first time since July 2021, the critically acclaimed Tampa Politiainment Podcast is back! With another general election in the books, the gang returns to its’ roots sticking with local first. Ernest interviews former Dishonorable Mention Associate Producer, podcast guest, and newly elected Pinellas County School Board Member Katie Blaxberg. She discusses her reaction to the outcome, her decision to run for the school board after working with Chris, and what it means to “make school board meetings boring again.” Then the band gets back together to discuss lessons that they’ve learned from the General Election up and down the ballot. What factors led to the outcome on Election Night? What’s next for both parties? Who’s the leader in the clubhouse for 2028 and beyond? What can we do for our communities? All this and more! It's good to be back. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
