Welcome to this edition of the Morning Drive Podcast! In today’s episode, we dance to Cyndi Lauper and talk to more undecided voters!

Today’s news:

As Chicago tries to build up its local tech sector, a new school is training the city’s next crop of digital entrepreneurs. The Starter League hosts a range of classes at 1871, a new hub for tech entrepreneurs in the Merchandise Mart.

DePaul University has announced it wants to move its men’s basketball games into Chicago from the western suburbs.

Featured in the podcast:

Pollsters estimate undecided voters make up a pretty small slice of the electoral pie – just about four to eight percent of Illinoisans expected to vote in November’s elections. But presidential campaigns spend a lot of time and money trying to reach that tiny group of people, especially in a year like this, when a single-digit margin could decide who wins the White House.

And your WEATHER for today: Mostly cloudy with highs in the upper 60s. Tonight, mostly cloudy with a 30 percent chance of showers. Lows in the mid 50s except in the upper 50s downtown.

Wednesday, cloudy, chance of showers in the morning, then showers likely in the afternoon. Highs in the upper 60s. Chance of precipitation 60 percent. Wednesday night, partly cloudy, 40 percent chance of showers in the evening. Lows in the mid 50s except in the upper 50s downtown.
