In this episode, School of Liberal Arts & Sciences faculty member and John Jay Institute director Greg Schaller answers the kinds of questions you probably have had about preparing to vote, but were too busy (or embarrassed) to ask. Listen in as we cover: where to find candidate info, straight party voting, the effect of “pulling levers” for candidates you don’t know, and more. Get prepped for November in this podcast on voter preparation basics.
