Are you a fan of South Plains politics? Here are your Talking Points for this week.
It’s two plus weeks until the November 8 election. Google searches for “write in candidates” are up nearly 2,800 percent. What happens if you find one you like? We’ll look at the “write in” process for the Texas election ballot.
With all the talk about Russian hacker and stealing elections, how do we know all of our votes are really being counted? Dorothy Kennedy, the Lubbock County Election Administrator, takes us behind the curtain for the perfect ballot safety feature.
We also discuss political action committees this week. The name makes you think of backroom deals made with secret handshakes and lost of money in briefcases. In reality, they’re very used and legal organizations that help make sure the needs of people who left out of the political process get met.
Talking Points with Bryan Mudd airs each Sunday morning at 11:30 a.m. and Sunday evenings at 11:05 p.m.
