It’s Election Week in America—and if you’re like us, you’re probably a little burned out with politics. So we’re offering up something different. This week, we ask three veteran political reporters a single question: what’s the most bizarre story you've ever covered?

Featuring:

• Barry Yeoman, freelance writer and contributor at The Assembly
• Jim Morrill, former politics reporter at the Charlotte Observer
• Dawn Vaughan, Capitol Bureau Chief at The News & Observer

Special thanks this week goes out to ¼ª²ÊÍøÍøվ’s Colin Campbell and Kate Sheppard of The Assembly.
