Naomi Kritzer, author of the best Twin Cities election guide for 20+ years, drops by the pod to assess mayoral races, City Council races, Park Board races, and even the surprisingly exciting Board of Estimate & Taxation race. Study up—Tuesday is Election Day! Kritzer's latest book, Obstetrix, will arrive next summer.
