On this Election Day 2013 we focus on women in politics - or, the lack-thereof.
The number of women in the Michigan Legislature is at a 20 year low.

But first, plans by a Canadian power company to store nuclear waste underground right near Lake Huron have drawn the attention of some members of Michigan's Congressional delegation.
As we first told you on Stateside this past August, Ontario Power Generation has proposed building a nuclear waste disposal facility at its Bruce Nuclear Power Site. That's near the city of Kincardine, which is located less than a mile from Lake Huron.
If approved, the site would house 52 million gallons of low and intermediate level nuclear waste.
Those expressing alarm about this proposal are Congressman Sander Levin, Gary Peters, John Dingell, and my next guest, Congressman Dan Kildee, Democrat from Flint Township.
