Vote! The Podcast

What does voter suppression look like? It takes many forms -- from attacking the postal service, to unnecessarily cumbersome voter ID laws, to denying voting rights to people with felony convictions. We'll talk to voting rights attorney Marc Elias about the forms of suppression and what we can do! Plus, we'll hear a question from an incarcerated citizen who wants to know why he can't vote.

Down-Ballot Races: Why They Matter & How To Pick 'Em

1 Recommendations

It’s easy to remember to vote for president or governor. It's harder to keep track all of the candidates and offices lower on the ballot! But we see the impact of those "down-ballot" races in our everyday lives -- through policing, schools, healthcare, voting rights, the list goes on and on... We'll talk about why those races matter, and how to make sure you complete your ballot this Election Day. Featuring Rosemary Ketchum, West Virginia's first openly trans elected official; and Ross Morales Rocketto of Run For Something, an organization that supports down-ballot candidates.
