I have been invited by the local radio station WRLR 98.3 to be part of there election coverage for the 3rd year. So on election night (the 17th) I will be there, with commentary on Lake county races. Tune in and listen to my pearls of wisdom!
They have a great lineup of other people who are very knowledgeable about county politics as well. Which should make for a great evening! In the studio to provide insight and analysis on various local Lake County races will be former cable television host/reporter Sharyn Elman, longtime political observer Phil Howe and former Gurnee Mayor Dick Welton, amongst others.
Beginning after the polls close at 7 PM and up to 12 midnight, the election team will thoroughly monitor and report vote totals from races and referendums, as they become available from the Lake County clerk's office. Live telephone interviews with candidates will take place throughout the 5 and half hour broadcast.
WRLR specializes in spotlighting local races and issues like no other radio station can. It is a non-profit, community radio station operated completely by volunteers. It fulfills it mission statement to educate, inform and entertain through its 24-7, wide ranging locally focused program schedule. The station has been instrumental in giving Lake County's communities the opportunity to be heard on politics and issues at the small town level.
WRLR reaches a potential listening audience of more than 200,000 people throughout Lake County, western Mchenry county, and southern portions of Wisconsin. In addition, the station has listeners throughout the world who get WRLR's programming stream over the Internet at www.wrlr.fm .
