This year’s Democratic and Republican conventions have been unconventional, to say the least. Largely virtual because of the pandemic, the nominating weeks for both parties offered new style. But many critics say there wasn’t much substance.
Did the Democrats cast a compelling vision of a potential presidency for former Vice President Joe Biden? Did President Donald Trump sway undecided voters to cast their support to him? Thursday, MPR News host Kerri Miller and NPR national political correspondent Mara Liasson discussed all of it with political junkies from both sides.
Guests:
Mara Liasson is a national political correspondent for NPR.
Michael Fauntroy is an associate professor of political science at Howard University.
Annette Meeks, CEO of Freedom Foundation of Minnesota.
