Election Day 2020 has arrived!
If you’re looking for something to listen to today while you wait in line at the polls, refresh your newsfeed, or watch the election night coverage roll in — look no further. I have made a 4-hour, 72-song Spotify playlist that will certainly put you in the patriotic spirit.
This playlist includes songs from each of the 50 states (featured in alphabetical order!) mixed with songs about the USA. It encompasses a wide variety of genres, from classical to hip hop, country to pop, and more. (If you have never used Spotify before, you can click this link for instructions on how to set up a free account.)
I hope you enjoy this playlist! I’ll be back later today with more updates from Election Day down here in Georgia.
