Globe Collection and Press at MICA

My fellow Americans, it’s time to face the music and vote. By mailbox, ballot box, pulling the lever or pressing a button on November 5th.

Nick Spitzer: We’ve got words and music to get you the polls, including Nina Simone, Willie Nelson, the Staple Singers, Los Lobos, the Roots, and now more of our National Anthem from Delfeayo Marsalis and the Uptown Jazz Orchestra.

NS: Willie Nelson with a song from a 2018 rally for candidate Beto O’Rourke who was running against Texas Senator Ted Cruz. And you can meditate now on Colin Allred taking on Ted Cruz. Face the music and vote, on American Routes!
