Two team members from Greater Augusta's Interfaith Coalition discuss how much more willing people are to complete the 2020 Census when they know how the data is used. I also review all those items that you did not know were on the November 3 ballot and National Voter Registration Day.

It's all about education, with Carrie Smith and Bishop Jackson

Local and state governments, though often overshadowed by federal government, have tremendous impact on our quality of life. This podcast provides a valuable service by educating people on how to improve their own quality of life through civic engagement. Various organizations encourage residents to register and vote, but it does not appear that anyone is showing voters how to make good decisions when they do. It feels akin to hiring someone for a job without reviewing the job description. Local Matters changes that narrative by educating voters with short, clear, and unbiased civics lessons from a career local government professional, public speaker, and management consultant.
