Friday on Lake Effect: Mail-in Voting, Future of the DNC, Fit For You

Friday on Lake Effect

We explore ways the Wisconsin Election Commission could improve mail-in voting and avoid the issues we saw in the April 7 primary. Then, we look at the future of the Democratic National Convention and the possibility of a partly virtual convention. Our Fit For You series features a former doctor who is committing himself to walking 125 miles in 10 days for a cause. Plus, a local doctor talks about his experience teaching medical students during COVID-19, outside of a hospital.

Guests:

  • Amber McReynolds, CEO of the National Vote at Home Institute
  • Thomas Holbrook, Wilder Crane Professor of Government at UW-Milwaukee
  • Dr. David Mayer, executive director of MedStar Institute and CEO of the Patient Safety Movement Foundation
  • Dr. Bruce Campbell, Lake Effect contributor
