Last week I did something I’ve never done before: I gave money to a political candidate. Oh, wait. I take that back. In 1978, I gave twenty-five bucks to someone running for the House of Representatives in Alabama’s 7th district. His name was Richard Shelby.

Voters are heading to the polls today. This is an “off year" election but there are some interesting races and proposition votes to talk about. Here to break it all down is Dr. Alan Chartock. We’ll also get live check-ins from Ian Pickus, Lucas Willard, Paul Tuthill and Josh Landes to discuss some of the key local and state races in our region. The number to call is 800-348-2551.
