They're back! As we close in on the 2024 election, we've once again brought together "We the People," voices from around the country - some familiar, some new - for a discussion that digs into the USA's fast-evolving political, cultural and social drama in a different way.

Neither a focus group nor poll about political preferences; it’s more a national town hall. An in-depth, substantive exploration of some of the issues and events that may matter most to Americans right now as the election approaches. You may well find in their collective opinions clues about how America will vote as was the case in the 2016 and 2022 elections.

What we know to be true remains for this election cycle: Every single vote truly matters. Americans need to vote; Americans better vote.
