Episode 2:
In the second episode of the Ohioans Against Extremism Podcast, Ainslee and Maria are joined by Jordyn Close, Deputy Director of the Ohio Women’s Alliance. Ainslee, Maria, and Jordyn break down what’s at stake in Ohio in the 2024 election, and offer some realism about why voting matters, even when it feels like all the options suck. They discuss why the fight for abortion access in Ohio is far from over, and why paying attention to races up and down the ballot – especially judges! – is so important to our day-to-day lives. And they’re not all holier-than-thou about it, we promise.
Ohioans Against Extremism is a 501(c)4 nonprofit launched in August 2024, dedicated to confronting extremism in Ohio’s state and local politics and government. Each episode, the hosts discuss current events and hot legislative topics within the context of Ohio’s political and legal landscape. As native Ohioans and experienced policy wonks, the hosts share their first-hand knowledge and experience to give listeners an intimate look behind the curtain of the extremist playbook.
