It's October, which means some people in California will have already voted early and others are planning to do it soon. Regardless of where your political sympathies lie, Election 2020 is a watershed election, and the decisions voters make on their November ballots will have far-reaching effects locally, statewide, and nationally.
Join us for the latest edition of our Week to Week political roundtable, in which we bring together a panel of politics experts to discuss the latest political news with insight, civility, and humor. This time, we'll be focusing on the fall election from a California perspective—looking at the candidates and propositions voters are being asked to consider.
