Left of Midlife is where three small-town, liberal women take on the chaos of politics, leadership, and life with sharp insight and plenty of laughs. From staring down the beginning of midlife to wondering what’s left of it, we’ve got stories and opinions worth sharing — and we’re all leaning left. From the quirks of Indiana politics to the national dumpster fire we’re all living in, nothing is off-limits. We’ll rant, we’ll laugh, and we’ll remind you that if we can’t find the humor in all this, we might just lose our minds.
Four Republicans. One nomination. A whole lot of convention drama.
The week on Left of Midlife, we're unpacking the Indiana Republican State Convention and the four-way battle for Secretary of State. Why does this race matter? What does the outcome tell us about the direction of the Indiana GOP? And what role did delegates...not primary voters...play in deciding who will oversee Indiana's elections?
We're talking party politics, election administration, convention culture, walkout songs, and what this all means heading into November...with the usual dose of snark, side-eye, and midlife perspective.
Because sometimes the most important races are the ones hardly anyone's paying attention to.

"Conventionally Speaking"
The ballots have been counted, the convention swag has been packed away, and Indiana Democrats have their nominees. This week we're diving into the Secretary of State race, what the results tell us about the direction of the party, and whether Democrats are focusing on what it will actually take to win in November.
As a county party chair, and candidate, Tiffanie shares her perspective from the convention floor while Marsha helps unpack the bigger picture. From convention-floor observations to grassroots realities, we're talking strategy, expectations, and the difference between winning a convention and winning an election.
Because those aren't always the same thing.
