We've heard for a while now that weather can affect elections, but are there facts and research to back up that claim? In Episode 17, we do a little digging and find some interesting literature that discusses how inclement weather plays a role in people's decision to go to the polls and exercise their right. We also look at research that discusses how changing individual environments can sway someone's salience and perception on topics like climate change. And, how are both emergency management and disasters significant when it comes to re-election? We'll break it down for you. That, social time, and our songs of the week are just a click away!
