Saying Goodbye To The Kojo Nnamdi Show
On this last episode, we look back on 23 years of joyous, difficult and always informative conversation.
Virginia Democrats are talking up their prospects for big wins at the polls this November. Commonwealth Republicans, meanwhile, are scaling up local crackdowns on illegal immigration. We examine whether Virginia will have a significant imprint on national politics this election season. And the District’s local primary campaigns are in full swing. We meet candidates vying to represent Ward 4, in the first of our primary debates.
