We’ve heard it over and over again since the midterm elections earlier this month: There was record turnout!

It’s being called an historic election here in Arizona and around the country.

But, according to Joseph Garcia, the fact that it rained last night doesn’t mean we’re not in a drought still. Garcia is with the Morrison Institute for Public Policy, and he says that just because we saw more people come out to vote in this election than we normally do, doesn’t mean there isn’t a voter crisis in our state.

The Show spoke with him recently to talk more about that and what he means by "voter crisis."
