The political cycle: We talk voting and elections at N.J. laundromat

WNYC News | Jun 3, 2024

It's hard to believe, but the November election is only about 150 days away.

WNYC is focusing on voters and where they stand on the issues, using laundromats across the New York metro area as hubs for civic engagement. We call the project 'Suds and Civics.'

George Bodarky, who leads the WNYC newsroom's Community Partnerships desk, spoke with Morning Edition from Bubbles aRe US in Paterson, N.J. He was joined by Dan Cassino, a professor of government and politics at Fairleigh Dickinson University, and the Executive Director of the FDU Poll.

WNYC is funded by sponsors and member donations
