Be Electionwise

Posted at 2:51 PM on June 16, 2008 by Julia Schrenkler

The Electionwise podcast page explains it in a snap:

Questions and answers are flying this election year, and the media are trying to keep up. But from time to time we miss something. If you have a nagging question about the election, the candidates or the issues -- a question you haven't seen answered elsewhere -- MPR's Electionwise podcast is here to help.

Submit your question for possible podcastery, or listen to some of the past episodes like "How much work are the candidates missing?" "Do campaign promises usually become policy?" and "How hard is it for previously unknown candidates to get elected?"
