Just because we’re not electing a president doesn’t mean we’re not electing someone to something the first Tuesday in November 2025 – the ONLY thing that is getting voted on this year are Municipal offices. That was mayors and city council members in June. November may bring some school board elections to your area. Please make sure you are registered to vote. Have you been watching our Legal Terms shorts? Of course, we hope you’ll listen to our live show or the podcast of In Legal Terms. But for those weeks when you just don’t seem to have 45 minutes, look for our Legal Terms shorts on the Mississippi Public Broadcasting YouTube Channel. They’re less than 2 minutes and give you a taste of what we’re talking about on this week’s show. I try to go back to the podcast and put the link to that show’s video short in the information page.
