The Politics of Electric Vehicles: Why Have EV’s Become a Partisan Issue?

USC Dornsife Center for the Political Future (CPF) Co-Director Mike Murphy joined Albert Gore, Zero Emissions Transportation Association Executive Director, and David Schwietert, Alliance for Automotive Innovation Chief Policy Officer, for a conversation on the polarized politics of electric-powered vehicles and what polling around this big divide reveals about the future of transportation on Tuesday, April 9. This conversation included results from a EVPolitics.org national poll on Republican and Democratic attitudes about electric vehicles. This event was in partnership with the USC Conceptual Foundations of Conflict Project.

Great presentation. Interestingly, the greatest resistance to EV transportation comes from 'conservative'/red states when they were/are the ones complaining the most about enviros stopping development! And EVs are only a fraction of what needs to be done on the climate change front.
