LeftMN Radio Hour 2-23-13

This week on the big show, we talk with Representative Steve Simon, Chairman of the house elections committee about some of the many changes to election law they are considering this session. Among them, early voting and no excuse absentee voting, the expansion of vote by mail and joining the National Popular Vote compact. But that is an abbreviated list, there are many more things we get into. Before that Aaron and myself talk about the big news of the week, the announcement by Republican Senator Branden Petersen that he will be supporting marriage equality. And we talk about the small news of the week, and there was certainly some small news this week!
