## Resource

Louisiana’s election day is here, but turnout’s slipping—early numbers dip, officials scramble to figure out why. Blame might lie in the new May-to-June election dates clashing with summer vacations, confusing closed primaries that now lock voters into party lines, and a shrinking pool of poll workers, most over 67. The call? Get involved—vote, volunteer, and keep democracy alive at every level. Support the show: Get a discount at https://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
