In Michigan, a race for U.S. Senate is not only testing the
growing appeal of left-wing populism. It could also be a turning
point in a long-running debate among Democratic voters about the
importance of electability.

Michael Kruse, who writes about politics for The New York Times,
traveled to Michigan with the producers Asthaa Chaturvedi and
Anna Foley of “The Daily” to speak to voters and campaign
volunteers.

Guest: Michael Kruse, a politics reporter for
The New York Times.

Background reading:
