What Are Your Voting Stories?

By Avishay Artsy on Friday, October 31, 2008.

Remember the long lines, malfunctioning voting machines, poorly-designed forms, and general confusion at the polling places in 2000 and 2004? Even with a third of the electorate voting early, an unprecedented turnout is expected this year, and it looks like we're heading for a repeat.

American Radio Works: Campaign '68

10/31/2008

The dramatic 1968 presidential election was a watershed in American politics. For half a century, the Democratic Party had dominated the political landscape. But in 1968, it crumbled. Richard Nixon was elected president and a new era of Republican conservatism was born. Some say 2008 may be the end of that era. "Campaign '68" will reveal to contemporary listeners the remarkable resonances between these two landmark political years, and how the events and consequences of 1968 help us better understand the 2008 race.

Election Eve Special

By Abby Goldstein on Friday, October 31, 2008.

Here's a chance to talk about your concerns and excitement as we wait to vote in an historic election. We’ll look ahead with the latest polls for President and Congress. We’ll also take a look back at some of the pivotal points in the campaigns. What were the highs and lows? What was surprising? Which strategies and tactics worked, and which did not?

The special will be hosted by Neal Conan. We’ll have Republican and Democratic strategists as guests as well as journalists and analysts from around the nation who have helped us cover this election process since it began.
