We are listening to our audience to cover the issues that matter most to you this election season. This story is one example, and please share your own questions here.

In these last couple weeks leading up to the elections, we’re talking to people in Bay Area neighborhoods with the lowest voter turnout. Today, we go to the City of Richmond in Contra Costa County.

Isabella Bloom, a reporter with Richmond Confidential and student at the UC Berkeley Graduate School of Journalism, shares what people in Richmond are thinking about in the upcoming election.
