If you're a Californian, you've likely received your ballot in the mail this week. (And if you haven't, check and see if you need to register--there's still time!) We're joined by our friend Tamie Dramer to discuss some of the races that interest us the most. How are we feeling about Joe Biden's chances against the fascist Donald Trump? Does Democrat Gregg Fishman have a chance against lifelong cop Rich Desmond in the race for the Sacramento County Board of Supervisors? Where did the local papers land on rent control and the 'strong mayor' power grab? (Pro-tip: Ignore them both and check out the Sacramento Sister Circle's voter guide.) We're also ecstatic to have Shannon back on the show after her recent battle with a rare medical condition. She talks us through her experience, and what it's been like trying to navigate an already broken medical system in the age of COVID-19.  Thanks for listening, defund the police and, as always:   Patreon: patreon.com/voicesrivercity Twitter: @youknowkempa, @guillotine4you, @ShanNDSTevens, @Flojaune And thank you to Be Brave Bold Robot for the tunes.
