book cover for the presidential character
Our first "Election Reading List" book review examines James David Barber's book, The Presidential Character: Predicting Performance in the White House. Barber's question in the book is, "What qualities should we look for in a President?" Barber's answer is simple: character, presidential style, and worldview.

Barber outlines the four types of Presidential character by which voters can evaluate candidates.

Every Election Year, you have the opportunity to vote in both primary elections to choose your party's nominees, and then the general election in November. This 2024 election season is like no other with more excitement and anticipation to vote than ever before. Choosing how you cast your ballot is a personal choice, and the options are many.

Many voters prefer to vote in-person. They enjoy the feeling of walking into a polling place, physically submitting or scanning a ballot, and getting an “I Voted!” sticker, which you can be proud to wear.

For voters who wish to vote in person, here's a list of what to expect at the polling place.

Election season is underway! And the November Presidential Election will be here before you know it.  Many voted using a vote-by-mail ballot over the last couple elections due to the pandemic, but in-person voting remains an important option for upcoming elections this year. Many states expanded in-person voting options for 2024 and beyond.

Whether you vote in-person during your state’s early voting period or on Election Day - Tuesday, Nov. 5, 2024, it’s important to get informed about your rights and responsibilities well before the big day. Voters in most states also have the option of voting by absentee or mail-in ballot.
