Around two million Californians are now voting by mail, a new record. Meanwhile, a number of voting irregularities have been reported in the State. RT America’s Lindsay France breaks them down in this edition of FishTank, and speaks with correspondent Brigida Santos, who visited polling places in Los Angeles, and experienced issues with voting herself.
Then, France is joined by author Liza Featherstone, who edited the book ‘False Choices: The Faux Feminism of Hillary Clinton’ and feminist writer and radio host Katie Halper to talk about Clinton as a feminist.
Not long after that discussion happened on air, Clinton released a video reflecting on her place in the Women's Rights movement.
