Joann Loulan, Executive Director of Local Majority, joins Deepak Puri, CEO, of The Democracy Labs, in a story about activism at the state level and the need to pay attention to what state legislatures are doing. Local Majority is promoting research from subject experts to counteract the influences of misleading and disinformation at the state and local levels.

Deepak and Joann discuss:

  • Why well-documented research is essential to dispelling misinformation and disinformation about the activities of state legislatures
  • Use of rolling billboards to promote candidates and highlight local issues
  • Finding and engaging specific voters to motivate them to take an interest in state and local candidates
  • Who is taking responsibility for infrastructure projects
