Elections Matter- Make your Vote Count!
Folks, we are less than 4 weeks from the voting deadline in the most important election of the century. Yes, we say that most elections. And it's never been more true. With our very democracy on the line, you must participate in this election cycle. Kristin Hansen, President of Blue Sky Waukesha and Sam Liebert, Wisconsin Director of All Voting is Local join Mark to talk about the unique stakes of this election. In addition to the vital Presidential race, Wisconsin voters have a huge opportunity to reshape our state's legislature. With new, fairer maps, we can finally achieve accurate representation to meet our deeply purple state's needs. However, we'll face challenges in achieving that. Kristin, Sam, and Mark discuss the attempts at election interference present in this cycle.
