Tomorrow is the big day, federal election day, that is…but also the Mardi Grass festival is continuing in Nimbin, and we’ll get to hear about some of the events planned for that later in the show. 

Echo Publications print editor and co-host of Monday night’s Richmond Meet the Candidates live broadcast forum Hans Lovejoy joins us later in the show to discuss some of the takeaways from the event and we hear about one of the broader concerns at play this election in the form of misinformation.
