Breaking Down the 2020 Presidential Race

Breaking Down the 2020 Presidential Race

In case you didn’t notice, there is a presidential election taking place this year on November 3rd and along with it come all of the requisite primaries and caucuses happening across the fruited plain.  It’s exciting and it’s part of the rich fabric of America!  Previously, we’ve posted about the importance of staying informed about local issues as well as developing working relationships with elected officials.  And, let’s not forget that most of those men & women who represent us in Washington are up for election this year!  For now, let’s focus on that ever-so-lively race to be the nation’s chief executive.

As of this posting, the Iowa Caucus has been completed, Nevada was on deck for 2/22 and Super Tuesday (aka the Mother-Load) will be taking place on March 3rd:
