On today’s BradCast<\/i><\/a>, we begin with a late update on the weekend’s devastating earthquake in Ecuador<\/a> and the failure<\/a> of oil producing nations to reach an agreement to cut production (in hopes of raising worldwide oil prices).<\/p>\n

Then, we move on to domestic politics, with Republican Presidential candidate Ted Cruz once again skunking<\/a> Donald Trump out of another delegate contest over the weekend, this time in Wyoming, while concerns continue to emerge among Democrats about voting hours and “mysteriously switched”<\/a> voter registrations in New York state in advance of Tuesday’s big Presidential Primary there.<\/p>\n

We’ve got some answers to at least some of those concerns from an election official or two in NY, which may<\/i> ease concerns a bit…maybe…about voting hours not beginning until noon in many counties around the state tomorrow, and about what may<\/i> be happening to some of those reported party affiliation changes on voter registrations in the Empire State.<\/p>\n

Then, BradBlog.com legal analyst<\/a> Ernest A. Canning<\/b> joins us with updates from two states in the fight to overturn Republicans’ unlawful, unconstitutional, disenfranchising Photo ID voting restrictions both in the state of Texas<\/a> and in Wisconsin<\/a> where, believe it or not, we’ve actually got a bit of good news from the courts!<\/p>\n

Finally, Hillary Clinton’s campaign undermines the Democrats’ argument to overturn the Supreme Court’s 2010 Citizens United<\/i> decision<\/a>. I explain that and much more on today’s BradCast<\/i>! Enjoy!<\/p>\n
