Election Day is a Bones Day (with Hala Ayala and Deborah Morbeto)

The Suburban Women Problem

Today’s episode is about the importance of the upcoming elections on November 2nd. So if you live in Virginia (or anywhere that has an election next week), please vote and make your voice heard!
On this episode, Rachel Vindman, Jasmine Clark and Amanda Weinstein talk about how important it is for Democrats to turn out for their local elections. Jasmine announces that she’s begun her re-election campaign, Rachel gushes about the uplifting energy at a recent campaign event she attended in Virginia, and Amanda compares the Democratic platform to her fave… HGTV!
They’re joined by Deborah Morbeto, a suburban mom in Loudoun County, Virginia. Deb explains how frustrated she’s been that a handful of right-wing extremists acting out at school board meetings has been giving her whole district a bad name and how she’s fighting back—with kindness. She organized a school supplies drive for teachers in her district to show them that parents do appreciate and support their hard work.
Then Amanda gets the chance to sit down with Hala Ayala about her campaign for Lieutenant Governor of Virginia. Hala reiterates the importance of the Nov 2nd election and chats about how much caffeine it takes to run for office and what is more political, the PTA or the VA House of Delegates.
Finally, Amanda, Jasmine and Rachel raise a glass to sweater weather, sports victories, and launching a new opinion column in USA Today during this week’s “Toast to Joy.”
