Battle For The Sexes—The Weekly Roundup

To unlock Politicology+ visit politicology.com/plus

This week, we discuss the huge gap between college-educated women and non-college educated men, what it could mean in the election and moving forward.

Later, we look at how attention has shifted away from the White House after Biden dropped out of the presidential race. 

Finally, we head to Politicology+ where we dive into why the chairman of the Securities and Exchange Commission has become a hot-button presidential campaign issue and whether a Harris administration would change their approach to crypto.
