Today's Poll Question: Should Tom Kean Jr.'s three-month unexplained absence disqualify him from re-election?

About this episode

Today's Poll Question at Smerconish.com: Should Representative Tom Kean Jr.’s three-month unexplained absence disqualify him from re-election? Michael examines the growing controversy surrounding New Jersey Congressman Tom Kean Jr., who has not cast a vote in Congress since March 5 and has largely disappeared from public view. In this episode, Michael explores the tension between respecting a potential health crisis and demanding accountability from an elected official. If Kean is facing a serious medical or mental health challenge, how much privacy should he be afforded? And at what point do voters have a right to insist on active representation? A thoughtful conversation about transparency, compassion, public service, and democratic responsibility. Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.
