Episode 187: Analyzing politics with UMD's Cynthia Rugeley

This week we are joined by a Texas native who has quickly become a go-to political authority for Northland media when it comes to analyzing national politics.  

University of Minnesota Duluth political science professor, and former journalist, Cynthia Rugeley (rhymes with hugely) discusses Sen. Amy Klobuchar on the debate stage, the Democratic Debates as a whole, and her idea that President Trump’s worst sin is accusing critics of a crime.

She also talks about local politics and shares why Minnesota, a purple state in her opinion, is an interesting state to follow on a local level.
