For many of us in San Francisco and the Bay Area, the presidential election of 2016 was a deeply disturbing and even traumatic event. It wasn't any different for Cynthia and Jeremy Pollock, longtime members of the San Francisco League of Pissed-Off Voters.

On this episode of Storied: San Francisco, Cynthia and Jeremy recount that dark day. This episode was recorded at Virgil's Sea Room in September 2017, well before the elections earlier this month that offered the first sense of hope for millions across the country.
