We’re less than 20 days away from the November election and it’s a packed ballot. Last week, we focused on the candidates running for Dane County Executive. This week, we invited Cap Times state government reporter Andrew Bahl on the podcast to zoom in on some of the state legislative races Madisonians will vote on as well as the proposed constitutional amendment on the ballot.
