If you’re a Democrat running for office in 2018, you may be hoping to ride the big Democratic Blue Wave. But what are Democrats doing to make sure this groundswell of Democratic movement is a splash, not a splat? This week on the Election University podcast, our hosts Reiny Cohen and Jason Bennett talk strategy with Democratic National Committee Deputy Chair, Congressman Keith Ellison. Congressman Ellison lends his expert advice and inspiration to maximize the blue wave up and down the ballot. Plus, we discuss if Democrats are good at message discipline. 

You can keep up with Congressman Ellison on his campaign website, Congressional site, or by following him on twitter @keithellison. You can also tune into his podcast We the Podcast by subscribing here.
