September 12, 2018 - Max & Murphy Podcast: 2018 Primary Day is Here

primary day sept 221In a final preview of primary day for state-level races, we discussed the fact that primary day determine the future of the Democratic Party in New York, and dissected the races for Governor, Lieutenant Governor and Attorney General, the battles between former IDC senators and their challengers, and more just ahead of the votes. We were also joined by Jill Jorgensen, City Hall bureau chief for the New York Daily News, who discussed Mayor Bill de Blasio's role in the state elections.
