Labor Day, traditionally seen as the time when campaign season really ramps up. voice-verified

How would you describe how Democrats are thinking about messaging their platform this year? voice-verified

I feel like, Mara, we've talked about this a lot this year, too. voice-verified

Vance as a tiebreaker, like it would be, I don't know, it would kind of like blow up the entire media ecosystem. voice-verified

What else are you guys going to be watching before we go just in the next couple months? voice-verified

And not watching the NFL. voice-verified

All right. voice-verified
