It’s been arguably the most eventful US Presidential campaign in history and the stakes couldn’t be higher, not just for the United States, but for the world.There’s been two assassination attempts on Republican nominee Donald Trump, who became the first US President to be convicted of a felony over hush money payments to an adult film star.We've seen President and Democratic nominee Joe Biden sensationally withdraw from the race after the most disastrous presidential debate performance in history and replaced by America’s first woman of colour to run for the White House, Vice President Kamala Harris.In this special US election episode, Julia sits down with American political analyst, Amy Walter from The Cook Political Report, for a deep dive on each swing state, the current state of play, how gender and reproductive rights are influencing the campaign and what we can expect when voters head to the polls on November 5.Show notes:To learn more about the electoral college ratings, go to: <a href="https://centerforpolitics.org/crystalball/2024-president/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">https://centerforpolitics.org/crystalball/2024-president/</a>To learn more about the states where abortion is on the ballot, go to:<a href="https://www.washingtonpost.com/politics/2024/abortion-ballot-measures/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">https://www.washingtonpost.com/politics/2024/abortion-ballot-measures/</a>Bruce Wolpe is an expert on US and Australian politics, having worked in the US Congress during President Barack Obama's first term and as a senior advisor to A Podcast of One’s Own host, Julia Gillard, when she was Prime Minister.
