S4E43 - Rock that Vote! It's Election Day 2024

  • Summary

  • Today is November 5, 2024, so happy election day, Memphis! We want to make sure you have made your voice heard by casting your vote this election season. Whether you early voted or will be headed to your designated polling location TODAY, we want to be sure you have everything you need to vote with confidence. Happy voting!

    What does the path to public office look like at the local level? New Memphis recently hosted a live event at the Memphis Brooks Museum of Art to explore this question and more...and we're bringing audio from the event to your inbox today! In a series of short, nonpartisan conversations in which elected officials interviewed each other, this week's episode gives some insight into what drew some our community's leaders – from mayors to State Representatives – to serve in public office, what motivates them to do the work, and what they hope will inspire other leaders to take an active role in the community.
