John,

2020 is a very important election year. There’s the presidential race of course, but in California we also have 12 statewide propositions. Plus every member of Congress, along with many legislators, are also up for re-election. If you feel overwhelmed just thinking about the research you’ll need to do in order to be an informed voter, you’re not alone. Luckily, KQED is here to help.

KQED’s politics team works year-round to ensure you have all the information and analysis you need to complete your ballot with confidence. We hope you’ll apply that same level of confidence to your support of KQED by making a monthly sustaining gift today.
Each week on our radio show and podcast Political Breakdown, Marisa Lagos and I interview people who are having an impact at the local, statewide or national level. Our team also produces an online voter guide with clear explanations of each item on your ballot, covers election results live and reports on how the results of each proposition will impact you and your community.

This kind of fact-based and non-sensationalized political news is critical to a healthy democracy, and we are only able to provide it because of our members’ support.

Thomas and Anne Niesen are joining with a group of anonymous donors for a special challenge. Every new and upgraded sustaining member between now and September 27 will unlock $100 of the $30,000 challenge. Please make a monthly sustaining gift today—your gift will have even more impact and you’ll help foster an informed community and healthy political dialogue!

KQED is a nonprofit, free to everyone in our community and dedicated to bringing you fact-based news. Political news doesn’t only happen during an election year, and it takes a full team to stay up-to-date on all of the news so that we can keep you informed. If you value this work, please consider making a monthly sustaining gift today.

Thank you for supporting KQED and independent journalism!
