An historic election.  That's what we have this November.   A presidential election in the middle of a pandemic with face-coverings and physical distancing requires a different process be uses to cast our ballots. 

THAT we can vote is never in doubt, HOW we will vote has changed. 

To explain the process (and answer concerns people might have) is Yolo County's Jesse Salinas -- our local elections officer.  If after listening to this show you still have questions, you can contact Mr Salinas and his staff at:   yoloelections.org

For many groups, voting rights were gained after decades of struggle and activism. In this election special we learn about the history of voting in the United States and travel to our nation's capital, Washington, D.C. Listen to find out which American presidents kept alligators at the White House! We talk to Da Vinci Junior High social studies teacher, Victor Lagunes, about voting, online teaching, and the San Francisco Giants.
