9:30 Coffee Break: 'Super' songs

by Jade and Sean McPherson
March 01, 2016
Today's Coffee Break theme is inspired by current events. This is the day known as Super Tuesday, when voters from 12 states — including Minnesota — will be heading to polling places and caucus sites on the busiest day of the 2016 primaries.
Tuesday's vote will set the parties up for their final run toward the November ballot. Next come local and district-level conventions, then state and national conventions, where each party's nominees will be determined. You can find a complete guide to and coverage of Super Tuesday at mprnews.org.
With so much political activity going on, Matt in Minneapolis got in touch with us about the Coffee Break. "It's Super Tuesday!" Matt writes. "How about some songs to inspire us today as we prepare to engage in the democratic process?"
Thank you, Matt, for the suggestion!
