West Hartford Town Hall ballot box.

West Hartford Town Hall ballot box.

On Election Day we do a show where we ask people across Connecticut to do a simple thing: Go vote in your town before 1 p.m. Then call us between 1 and 2 p.m. and tell us how it felt, what you saw, whom you spoke to. Say whatever you want to say about the experience of voting.

This hour we hear from Citizen Observers about their experiences at the polls.

GUESTS: 

  • Charlie Barber: Nonfiction author and Writer in Residence at Wesleyan University
  • Barry Blitt: Cartoonist and illustrator for The New Yorker and other publications
  • Susan Clinard: Owner of Clinard Sculpture Studio
  • Jack French: Research Associate in the Yale Program for Financial Stability at the Yale School of Management
  • Lara Herscovitch: Singer-songwriter, poet, performer, advocate, former CT State Troubadour, and children’s book author
