    ¿Podrían los puertorriqueños en Pensilvania cambiar las elecciones?
    Jul 18 2024
    La población puertorriqueña estadounidense que vive en Pensilvania podría ser el factor determinante en uno de los estados claves en esta elección presidencial. Pensilvania, el estado natal del presidente Joe Biden, votó demócrata en 2020, pero ¿cómo votará esta vez el estado pendular más poblado de Estados Unidos? Con casi 500.000 puertorriqueños listos para votar en el estado, la creciente población puertorriqueña podría ser el margen de diferencia en las próximas elecciones de 2024. En este episodio, los hosts Sara Sadhwani, profesora de ciencias políticas y el periodista, Juan Diego Ramirez, analizan el poder votante de los puertorriqueños estadounidenses en Pensilvania: su historia migratoria al estado, los problemas que afectan a sus comunidades y su potencial para influir en las elecciones.

  • Could Puerto Ricans in Pennsylvania Sway the Election?

    Could Puerto Ricans in Pennsylvania Sway the Election?
    Jul 18 2024
    Pennsylvania’s Puerto Rican American population could potentially pivot America’s most populous swing state. That’s not only a tongue twister, but, also, an election twister. President Joe Biden’s home state of Pennsylvania ultimately voted blue in 2020, but which color will America’s most populous swing state vote this time around? With nearly 500,000 Puerto Rican Americans ready to vote in the Keystone State, the large and growing community could be the margin of difference in the upcoming 2024 elections. In this episode, co-hosts Sara and Juan Diego discuss Puerto Rican Americans’ voting power in Pennsylvania — their migration history to the state, the issues impacting their communities, and their potential to sway the outcome of America's most populous swing state. The episode is co-hosted by political science professor Sara Sadhwani and multimedia journalist J.D. Ramirez.

  • Behind the Iron-y Bars: Who’d be Elected if *all* Convicted Felons Could Vote?

    Behind the Iron-y Bars: Who’d be Elected if *all* Convicted Felons Could Vote?
    Jul 11 2024
    While convicted felon — and former president — Donald Trump parades across the United States, campaigning for electoral support, thousands of American people convicted with felonies sit barred from voting. In this episode, co-hosts Juan Diego Ramírez and Sara Sadhwani dig into understanding convicted felons as a political group: their rights and lack thereof, their parties and affiliations, and their potential voting power. Nationly’s producer-reporter, Sofía Sanchez, talks to expert Hannah L. Walker to ultimately ask: Could outcomes change if folks with felony convictions — in all states — got to participate in 2024 elections too? The episode is co-hosted by political science professor Sara Sadhwani and multimedia journalist J.D. Ramirez. Stream Nationly every Thursday wherever you listen to podcasts. ___ Hosts: Sara Sadhwani and Juan Diego Ramirez | Producers: Saadia Khan & Shei Yu & Sofia Sanchez I Content Writers: Andrea Flores & Daniella Tello-Garzon I Research Assistant: Nicholas Black I Editorial review: Shei Yu I Sound Designer & Editor: Juan Vélez I Immigrantly Theme Music: Simon Hutchinson | Other Music: Epidemic Sound Nationly is an Immigrantly Media Production.

  • Gen Z Democrat vs. Indicted Republican Incumbent

    Gen Z Democrat vs. Indicted Republican Incumbent
    Jun 27 2024
    Ashwin Ramaswami is the 24-year-old Democrat — and recent Georgetown Law School graduate — campaigning for a seat in the Georgia Senate. Ramaswami, who previously worked to create election protections at the Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency (CISA), quit his job to challenge Senator Shawn Still after the Republican incumbent was indicted for allegedly attempting to overturn the 2020 election results. In this episode, Nationly sits down with Ramaswami to talk about connecting with both young and old voters, as well as to discuss the nuances of representing the Indian community in Georgia’s 48th Senate District, in the greater United States, and around the world. The episode is co-hosted by political science professor Sara Sadhwani and multimedia journalist J.D. Ramirez.

  • Georgia’s Power Players: The Rising Influence of Indian-American Voters

    Georgia’s Power Players: The Rising Influence of Indian-American Voters
    Jun 20 2024
    In this episode, we explore Georgia's historic political shift in 2020 when the state narrowly elected Joe Biden, marking the first Democratic presidential win since 1992. Asian voters were a big part of that result, as voter registration and participation surged from 2016 to 2020, leading the turnout increase. Our focus today is on Indian-American voters in Georgia, a significant yet often overlooked group in political discussions. Apart from their voting power, Indian-Americans are becoming more prominent in elections, evidenced by the popularity of Vivek Ramaswamy and Nikki Haley in recent primaries. We also introduce an Indian-American Gen Z candidate, Ashwin Ramaswami, running for State Senate in District 48, showcasing the new wave of political engagement. The episode is co-hosted by political science professor Sara Sadhwani and multimedia journalist J.D. Ramirez. Stream Nationly every Thursday wherever you listen to podcasts. ___ Hosts: Sara Sadhwani and Juan Diego Ramirez | Producers: Saadia Khan & Shei Yu I Content Writers: Andrea Flores & Daniella Tello-Garzon I Research Assistant: Nicholas Black I Editorial review: Shei Yu I Sound Designer & Editor: Steve Martin I Immigrantly Theme Music: Simon Hutchinson | Other Music: Epidemic Sound Nationly is an Immigrantly Media Production.

  • Debunking the Latino Vote

    Debunking the Latino Vote
    Jun 13 2024
    In 2016, Trump claimed victory in Arizona, but in 2020, Biden narrowly won by a razor-thin margin of 11,000 votes. This episode explores the diverse perspectives within the "Latino vote" and questions the existence of a cohesive voting bloc. Our focus centers on Arizona's Senate race, featuring Ruben Gallego, a Latino war veteran and Democrat, against Kari Lake, a Republican known for her hard-right views and election denialism. This pivotal contest unfolds against the backdrop of recent legislative actions, including the state's repeal of its abortion ban and SB1070, a controversial anti-immigrant "show me your papers" law. In Arizona's evolving political landscape, this episode examines the changing dynamics of the Latino vote and its impact on critical issues such as abortion and immigration. The episode is co-hosted by political science professor Sara Sadhwani and multimedia journalist J.D. Ramirez. Stream Nationly every Thursday wherever you listen to podcasts. ___ Hosts: Sara Sadhwani and Juan Diego Ramirez | Producers: Saadia Khan & Shei Yu I Content Writer: Andrea Flores I Research Assistant: Nicholas Black I Editorial review: Shei Yu I Sound Designer & Editor: Steve Martin I Immigrantly Theme Music: Simon Hutchinson | Other Music: Epidemic Sound Nationly is an Immigrantly Media Production.

  • A Brutal Choice

    A Brutal Choice
    Jun 6 2024
    In this premiere episode of Nationly, we take a closer look at how the feelings surrounding Gaza have influenced voter sentiment, particularly among Muslim voters in Michigan who have harnessed the power of their vote to send a message. We explore the importance and history of this community in Michigan, especially in Dearborn and Ann Arbor, a crucial swing state that Trump narrowly won by 11,000 votes. Growing anti-Biden sentiment is evident in Michigan through the Uncommitted National Movement and among Gen Z and college students. The Uncommitted National Movement is gaining momentum and aims to significantly impact the 2024 elections, while student protests and encampments on college campuses reflect increasing dissatisfaction with Biden's policies. Amid ongoing pro-Palestinian protests, the episode questions whether political parties can continue to overlook the powerful Muslim vote. The episode is co-hosted by political science professor Sara Sadhwani and multimedia journalist J.D. Ramirez.
