Races to Watch This Spooky Election Season

It’s Halloween weekend, and few things are scarier than the possibility of a socialist gaining power over America’s biggest city. 

On Tuesday, millions of New Yorkers will have the opportunity to choose the future they want for the Big Apple. Democrat socialist Zohran Mamdani, Republican Curtis Sliwa, and Democrat-turned-independent Andrew Cuomo are all running to be New York’s next mayor.

If the polls are even close to accurate, Mamdani, a candidate who has made promises to freeze rents and introduce government-run grocery stores, will be the next mayor of New York City. 

In addition to the Big Apple, voters in Virginia and New Jersey are choosing their next governors on Tuesday. 

Jessica Furst Johnson, a partner and co-chair of the political law practice at Lex Politica, joins “Problematic Women” this week to break down each election and assess who has run the best campaign. 

Also on today’s show: President Donald Trump just returned from Asia, where he met with Chinese leader Xi Jinping. We explain the big takeaways from the trip and what the future could hold for U.S.-China relations. 

Plus, Americans have just celebrated Halloween. But is it OK to celebrate the holiday as a Christian? All the “Problematic Women” weigh in.

Fibis I am just an average American. My teen years were in the late 70s and I participated in all that that decade offered. Started working young, too young. Then I joined the Army before I graduated High School. I spent 25 years in, mostly in Infantry units. Since then I've worked in information technology positions all at small family owned companies. At this rate I'll never be a tech millionaire. When I was young I rode horses as much as I could. I do believe I should have been a cowboy. I'm getting in the saddle again by taking riding lessons and see where it goes.
