Plastic Bag Ban Proposed For Cuyahoga County; Local Voting Trends Tell Larger Story

Paper of plastic? Soon, it may be neither in Cuyahoga County if the plastic bags are disposable and the paper not recyclable. County Council, which had considered a bag fee previously but didn't act, now is discussing a retail ban. We'll talk about that to begin our show, then speak with 538.com's Clare Malone, who examines the rift in the Democratic party by looking at voter trends in Parma and her native Shaker Heights.  Finally, our Arts & Culture team talks with Solon native, Danny Caine, about his new poetry collection: "Continental Breakfast."
