Election Insiders Talk Iowa Caucuses, 2016 Presidential Races

In one week, the hypothesizing and conjecturing will stop — at least for a moment as real voters express their preferences for the presidency at the Iowa Caucuses. On this edition of Up To Date, political experts David von Drehle and Carl Cannon talk with Steve Kraske about the 2016 presidential race.

David Von Drehle and Carl Cannon were scheduled for “Dateline Washington: Election Insiders” tonight at the Kansas City Public Library. The library has canceled tonight’s event as severe weather on the East Coast prevented Carl Cannon from reaching Kansas City.

When I host Up To Date each morning at 9, my aim is to engage the community in conversations about the Kansas City area’s challenges, hopes and opportunities. I try to ask the questions that listeners want answered about the day’s most pressing issues and provide a place for residents to engage directly with newsmakers.
