Listen "Our guardian of democracy"
Episode Synopsis
This year’s elections are going to be a fair bit different, even if you’re veteran at casting ballots. For one thing, you're going to need photographic proof of your identify. And that not the only change that the state legislature has foisted on us. In fact, Polk County has been singled out for several additional changes to way we vote, and the way we’re represented, at the municipal, county, state, and federal levels. So I asked our county’s director of elections, Cliff Marr, to go over them with me, and he graciously agreed. I’m willing to bet you’ll learn a few things you didn’t even know you didn’t know.
