The U.S. presidential election is just a few weeks away, and early in-person voting has already begun in some communities.
As Vice President Kamala Harris and former President Donald Trump’s campaigns ramp up in key swing states like Michigan, we continue talking to voters about what’s motivating them to vote in this pivotal election year.
As part of that ongoing conversation, WDET hosted the international special, America Votes: A Cross-Border Conversation — in collaboration with CBC Radio and NPR — featuring Jeremy Hobson of NPR’s The Middle, and Ian Hanomansing, host of CBC’s Cross Country Checkup.
The U.S. election special broadcasted live across the U.S. and Canada from 4-6 p.m. on Sunday, with many listeners from both the U.S. and Canada calling in to join the conversation and share how the election’s outcome could affect them.
