Early voting is now underway in much of the country, and on Saturday, the organizers behind the “No Kings” protests held a day of action encouraging Americans to vote early.
COURIER’s local reporters fanned out across the country to hear directly from voters about the issues that matter most to them and why they’re backing the candidates they’ve chosen.
No Kings was just one example of our reporters doing what they do best: getting out into their communities, talking to voters, and producing sharp, compelling journalism. Over the past week, we’ve published hundreds of voter interviews, speeches, and conversations captured in the field at protests, campaign rallies, town halls, and more.
With less than two weeks until Election Day, we’ll keep doing more of the same: talking to the people who will decide this election.
