Welcome to a new season of Before You Vote, The Daily Tar Heel's election podcast. This season, we will be breaking down what you need to know about voting before the 2023 local elections. In this episode, Ethan Horton, Lucy Marques and Walker Livingston from the city and state desk go over some of the school board candidates, Barbara Foushee's campaign for Carrboro Mayor and campaign finance.

From October 19 to November 4, you can register to vote and vote early. October 31 is the deadline to request an absentee ballot. November 7 is Election Day.
