In Which We Discuss:

1. Early voting is happening and you should do it!

2. How is it possible that we haven’t left Elon Musk on the moon yet?

3. Donald Trump would like you to know something about Arnold Palmer.

4. Jon Tester’s opponent either got shot in a gunfight in Afghanistan, or shot himself with a pistol while visiting a national park. Just depends who you ask.

5. Control of the senate is within the margin of error.

6. Despite what you see in today’s news, Donald Trump still technically hasn’t worked at a McDonald’s.
