DEBRIEF: Midterm fallout and Geneva government questions (podcast)

Josh Durso and Jackie Augustine discuss the midterm aftermath and the work that follows on The Debrief. The episode also examines Upstate voting patterns and proposed changes in Geneva city government.

Josh Durso and Jackie Augustine discuss what follows the midterm elections on this week’s Debrief: delivering on campaign promises, rebuilding political parties and turning voter frustration into local involvement.

The conversation examines Democrats’ next steps, where Republicans go from here and whether social media gives a misleading picture of the electorate. They also consider a listener’s question about whether Upstate New York missed the national shift, with a closer look at local margins and party organization.

Closer to home, they discuss proposed changes to oversight of Geneva’s city comptroller, concerns about the pace of charter changes and a public comment questioning AI use in city government.
