We kick off our Election Day coverage with something a little unconventional. You’ll recall our summertime reality kick: the Wisconsin edition of Top Chef. Today we hear from Milwaukee chef Dan Jacobs, runner-up in the cutthroat competition, as he urges folks to support Sen. Tammy Baldwin, a strong advocate of the Restaurant Revitalization Program that kept an untold number of restaurants open during the pandemic and saved countless jobs. Plus, he’s vocal about passing a Farm Bill and addressing the climate concerns that impact our food supply.
