Ranked voting, a rebel movement at Yale and remembering a wonderful moment with Charles Krauthamer–it’s all in this edition of the Behind The Blue Wall podcast. Matt Gagnon of the Maine Heritage Policy Center (and a local radio talk host, too!) explains the “ranked-choice voting system” Maine will be using this Tuesday in their state elections–and why he thinks it’s insane. Journalist and trouble-maker Jamie Kirchick talks about his guerrilla campaign to join Yale’s Board of Trustees. And the news of Charles Krauthammer’s heartbreaking letter about his battle with cancer hit during the production of this podcast, so I share a favorite Krauthammer story that’s (mostly) family-friendly.
