ABOUT THIS EPISODE
The 2026 November midterm election will not only be a selection of individual candidates, it will serve as a referendum on our democratic process. As voters, we may be faced with illegal or unconstitutional disruption of the voting process, efforts to disenfranchise eligible voters, and threats of federal intervention at state polling places that could include the use of armed federal officers. SideBar: Optimism in Action welcomes former State Senate Majority Leader Bill Monning to our discussion of the importance of our individual roles in protecting and sustaining our democratic process this November.
