Episode Description from the Publisher

With the midterms days away, Adam and Dick walk through how to get a ballot counted in Colorado: use drop boxes instead of the mail, register and vote in person on Election Day if needed, sign up for ballot tracking, and answer the calls if you’re on the cure list. They also discuss the CD5 race, including the national forecasts, the shift in ad spending between the Crank and Killen sides, and why Dick’s own Falcon state house district has no Democrat on the ballot.The middle of the show covers the rally circuit, including Trump’s Ohio stops, a speaker at Ramaswamy’s rally attacking Al-Sayed, and a viral Fox News interview from a North Carolina rally. They also cover Colorado’s standoff with federal poll watchers and the claims circulating about voting machines and canvassing boards. Dick then makes the case against the phrase “common sense” in politics, and they close on the two Dan Sullivans on Alaska’s Senate ballot and what ranked choice voting does to that story.
