About this listen

Miles Mercer examines how off-cycle local elections drastically reduce turnout and create an older, less diverse electorate that reshapes city governance. Drawing on research across 1,600 cities, he reveals how separating municipal races from national contests isn't neutral scheduling—it's structural design benefiting organized interests while marginalizing broader community voices in decisions affecting schools, policing, and budgets.
