Nightside with Dan Rea - Rundown for August 27, 2020

Alan Khazei Wants to Represent the Massachusetts 4th District... Alan Khazei is one of several candidates vying to replace Rep. Joe Kennedy III who himself is in a race for the U.S. Senate. He was attacked recently in a PAC ad which misrepresented his stand on reproductive rights and none of his fellow candidates would step up to denounce the lie. So former 4th District Rep. Barney Frank and former Gov. Michael Dukakis stepped into the breach to set the record straight. Alan joins Dan to lay out his actual platform.

Markey vs Kennedy: Is it Too Close to Call? The Massachusetts primary is September 1st; just days away. One of the big races, Rep. Joe Kennedy III vs Sen. Ed Markey vying for Massachusetts’ U.S. Senate seat is razor close. Joining Dan to discuss the state of the race are pollsters Dave Paleologos of Suffolk University and Spencer Kimball of Emerson Polling.

Live from the Republican Convention... President Trump gives his formal acceptance tonight of the Republican nomination for President. We will be taking the President's speech as it happens from the South Lawn of the White House. Call in with your reaction. Who do you think held the better convention: Democrats or Republicans?
