Saying Goodbye To The Kojo Nnamdi Show
On this last episode, we look back on 23 years of joyous, difficult and always informative conversation.
It’s an emerging legal issue across the country: how and when to restrict the voting rights of people who are mentally impaired. From Maine to Missouri, we look at efforts to determine when a person is competent to vote — and what states are doing to protect vulnerable citizens from political exploitation.
