I wasn't really jazzed when the Atlantic took over Washington Week (on PBS Friday nights), but I have came around. They do a good job with the show and their reportage in general. The lady who does a lot of the international stuff is married to the Polish Foreign Affairs dude. She spends half the year there, and half in Washington.

IMO Atlantic consistently shows good reporting, analysis, & commentary…they’re good at tracking ‘the bigger problem’ lying behind so much in the news - this one is a good example of that.

My workplace was a polling place. A private not for profit, but a public place. (although it wasn't my polling place) Back in the day I worked on election day as a rover. I took stuff to polling places if there was a problem. And I have worked at polling places if there was a shortage of workers.
