Election 2020 is about two months away. This year's election, which includes the selection of a president for the next four years, faces unprecedented challenges ranging from a worldwide pandemic to a sitting president who has raised questions about mail-in ballots.

This edition of Speaking of Arkansas features an interview with the election coordinators of both Benton and Washington counties. They're jobs involve the coordination of poll workers, setting up polling sites and all the related details of securing the votes of their counties' residents.

We discuss absentee ballots, what voters should expect if they choose to go to a polling location, the closing of some polling sites and upcoming deadlines important to those who wish to vote in the 2020 election.
