Today's episode tells you everything you need to know about voting, including in particular West Virginia's "Sore Loser" law and whether it applies to big fat racist criminal loser Don Blankenship... and, in turn, what that means for Joe Manchin's chances of holding on to his Senate seat in the 2018 midterms.  Phew!

We begin, however, with... *sigh*... Andrew Was Wrong.  This time, an astute listener clarifies where Andrew elided over two different sections of the Voting Rights Act when discussing the Supreme Court's opinion in Shelby County v. Holder (2013).

Oh, and we have more on McDonald's, too!  After that, it's time to dig into West Virginia's "sore loser" law.  What does this mean for the upcoming Senate elections?  Listen and find out!

Then, the guys tackle a very good listener question from listener Greg regarding freedom of the press, freedom of speech, limited public fora, and more.

Finally, we end the answer to Thomas Takes The Bar Exam #86 regarding the sale of an automobile and a slippery salesman.  Remember to follow our Twitter feed (@Openargs) and like our Facebook Page so that you too can play along with #TTTBE!

I used to prefer a plain hamburger at McDonald's when I was a kid, around 2000ish. Without fail, every single time, they would put cheese on it. We always went through the drive through, so my mom or dad would have to pull into a parking spot and we'd all wait for them to bring my burger out. And sometimes, they would just bring me another cheeseburger, and we'd send it back again. I actually switched to ordering chicken nuggets because of this. Now I'm vegan, and I'll eat at McDonald's again when they stop adding beef fat to fries (which they only do in the US), and when they start serving the McVegan, which they are trialing in other countries.
