b'Dr. Lynn Vavreck, professor of political scientist at UCLA and contributing columnist to The Upshot at The New York Times, sits down with Jon to talk about 2022 midterms. After 2020, Lynn and her colleagues interviewed over 500,000 voters, leading them to conclude that our politics aren\\u2019t just polarized, but calcified. She argues that calcification has placed our politics on a knife\\u2019s edge, raising the stakes of every election and that 2022 was the biggest case of calcification we\\u2019ve seen yet.'
