For the first part of a conversation either side of 3rd November, I am joined this week by Tierney Hamilton, for a discussion of current US Politics ahead of the rapidly-approaching Presidential Election.
In the first half, we have a general political discussion, and get an idea of the mood on the ground in Tierney's part of the States (Rochester, NY). From 41 minutes in, we talk more about the performance of the Trump and Biden campaigns, how we feel about how it's all going, and we make a few predictions about States results and other outcomes. Eeeep.
A second part will definitely follow soon after Election Day... til then... good luck everyone.
