Welcome to our Elections 2020 Podcast Takeover: Part II! Clean Water Action just celebrated a huge and historic win when voters decided Joe Biden will be the next U.S. President. Voters turned out in unprecedented numbers and we helped elect Clean Water champions on the federal, state and local level. Now we are preparing for a new Biden Administration. Listen to our team of Clean Water experts discuss exactly what happened, how Clean Water voters made a difference, and how we can fight disinformation and help shape a stronger democracy for our future. Featuring Clean Water Action's Bob Wendelgass, President & CEO; Lynn Thorp, National Campaigns Director; Mary Brady-Enerson, Michigan State Director; Myron Arnowitt, Pennsylvania State Director; and guest host Michael Kelly, Communications Director.

Elections got you worried? No need to stress - we'll help you get through the chaos! Welcome to our ELECTIONS 2020 PODCAST TAKEOVER with Clean Water Action's national team of experts: host Michael Kelly - National Communications Director, Bob Wendelgass - President & CEO, Lynn Thorp - National Campaigns Director and Mary Brady-Enerson - Michigan Director. With the Election less than a week away, we thought we'd sift through the noise to bring you more meaningful conversations and provide you with the valuable information you need to be an empowered #CleanWaterVoter. We'll discuss high early voting counts and what it means, how we are getting out the vote in swing states, how mail-in ballots will impact the Election, what could happen if Trump claims mail-in ballots are illegitimate, how we can make EVERY VOTE COUNT, and how you can take action and get involved.
