Welcome to our standing tradition on election days. We morph the show into Ask A Voter in honor of citizens around the country who participate in the electoral process. Telling their voter stories today are: UCI Chancellor Dr. Howard Gillman (minute 2); UCI College Republican Carl Olson (minute 13); Miami Beach, Florida resident and retired university administrator, Deborah Van Cleve (minute 22); and finally Madison, Wisconsin and Get Out The Vote activists, Caryl Terrell and Claudia Pogreba (minute 34).
