Shasti Conrad is the Chair of the Washington State Democratic Party and Associate Chair of the Democratic National Committee. Her involvement in political organizing and activism taught her that campaigns must focus on economic messages to build coalitions that cut across partisan lines. This year, before the 2026 mid-terms, there is an opportunity to engage diverse constituents in person and online to test new messaging and strategies for reaching consensus and winning races.
We talk about:
- Who is participating in the nationwide protests against the Trump administration
- Reaching out to Republicans and Independents to engage persuadable voters
- Focusing on down-ballot races and statewide races in 2025
- Engaging younger voters
