The last couple of months have been especially intense (#understatement). Christine and Asha offer a look behind the curtain of how things went down for them around the election. They talk about Election Day (which looked very different for each of them), the emotional roller coaster that followed, where they were when the election was called, and where their heads are at now, looking forward.
