Commissioner in a Car – Sunday afternoon on Facebook Live
This started as a Facebook Live show in the days before the 2016 General Election. Because of the horrible cell reception in my office I started recording a series of videos in my car before work explaining election topics. The name Commissioner in a Car was born. I used it infrequently until the pandemic hit in March of 2020 and then it became a weekly feature. I recap the weekly election news in Onondaga County and throughout NY state while taking questions and explaining election deadlines and regulations. Every Sunday afternoon you can watch on Facebook live and shortly after air it will appear on my Youtube, Spotify, Apple Podcast, and other platforms on Anchor.FM
