Narrator Nicol Zanzarella's voice is urgent, at times even pleading for listeners to vote. It's clear author Kim Wehle is concerned about the 2020 presidential election. She'd like to see major changes in our election system—she talks about the "bizarre electoral college process," for example. At the same time, she's well versed in our current system; she guides listeners through the intricacies of staying registered when moving and dealing with provisional ballots. When Wehle calls it all “the voter two-step,” one hears her humor in Zanzarella's narration. There's a lot of information; Zanzarella's narration frequently slows down to make web addresses clear. Listeners can refer to a pdf to find their own state's rules in handy charts. J.A.S. © AudioFile 2020, Portland, Maine
