Get ready for a jam-packed Election Day episode, where we’re covering more than just the polls! In today's Blackurate News, Amanda Seales breaks down the Electoral College, giving you the ins and outs of this often-misunderstood institution. We’ll discuss its history, how it functions, and its influence on today’s elections. We’re also inviting you to share your voting experiences—whether you're fired up, frustrated, or just want to shout out your polling place, we want to hear what it’s like out there. Plus, don’t forget to celebrate National Love Your Red Hair Day and National Donut Day with us!

In the Big Up Let Down segment, we’re shouting out Calimar White, founder of a nonprofit that empowers employees to speak truth to their bosses. On the flip side, we’re calling out a high school pay-to-pass scheme involving assistant principals who charged students for grades. And as always, we’ve got a dedicated time for Voting and Venting, where listeners chime in on their voting anxieties, candidate dilemmas, and feelings about the laws that impact their cities. Tune in and let’s make your voice heard on this pivotal day!
