Blue State host’ Chery Glaser talks with Linda Rife and Deana Samms.

Linda is a music composer in Orange County. She identifies as ‘liberal’, but she’s registered as an independent.

Deana is a family therapist and an Evangelical Christian. She voted for Donald Trump in 2016 but struggled with that decision.
