'BradCast' 9/14/2026 (Going Postal...50 Days Before Midterm Election Day)

Episode Description from the Publisher

On today's 'BradCast': America has just 50 days to go until the critical midterm elections -- last chance to vote is November 3rd. The US Postal Service's restructuring resulted in the rejection of thousands of legal, on-time, mail-in ballots across the country, particularly affecting rural voters. Two federal courts blocked Donald Trump's unconstitutional executive order directing USPS to interfere with mail-in balloting. A whistleblower and the Postal Workers union warn USPS is radically unprepared to implement the order. The US Supreme Court blocked Trump's USPS scheme, but voters should try to vote early, dropping their ballot at a dropbox or polling place, or mail ballots at least 7 days before Election Day and ask for a manual postmark. The road ahead will get very bumpy, so vote carefully, and spread the word. Callers weigh in.
