On this edition of Your Call, we find out why Obama and Biden voters either didn't vote at all or voted for Trump.
Research by Celinda Lake found that Biden voters who didn't vote for Harris said she failed to address issues like poverty and inequality. Professor Daniel HoSang's research shows that Democrats lost the record numbers of nonwhite voters who put Obama in the White House because "Democratic policies have failed them."
