Its Election Day here in America and, of course, on Morning Bull! Along with some great coverage of the polls and how crowded they were, we checked in with a local WIVB reporter who was on the scene in OP and told us what it was looking like.
SPECIAL EPISODE:
- Gabby Mediak of WIVB Channel 4 News stopped by via phone for a few minutes to give us an update on some of the local polling places, including that of Orchard Park. She gave us some helpful tips on what to bring and how long it may take & obviously, how to plan ahead for that this Election Day.
- Rock and Roll icon and current host right here on 97 Rock, Alice Cooper dialed-in to Morning Bull via his home studio and gave us a few thoughts on how he sees the election playing out and even some fun anecdotes and stories of experiences hes shared with former Presidents.
- Back in the old days of radio, depending on how you look at it, this program, obviously under a different name, did a stunt involving 3 strippers, 3 candidate names from a local election and 3 phone pagers in plastic baggies. What commenced was a certain placement of the pagers and calls from YOU to ‘get the votes in’ by making them vibrate. You can imagine how crazy this would be to pull off now!
- Joining us bright and early, after a night and day full of rallies was President Trump, as well as his opponent Joe Biden. They ‘answered’ our questions in the form of a musical game…sorry it wasnt the real people but…we tried! It was a lot of fun and brought back some old classic songs.

FEATURE:
- From his offices and currently on the campaign trail, was a newer candidate in the running joined Morning Bull to discuss his platform and the fact that his signs and shirts have been seen around Buffalo in the past few weeks. His name is Allen Diggs and we gave him a ring to see how everything has been going and what he expects today on Election Day.

Yesterday, we were “joined by” President Donald Trump on the phone for about 5 minutes on the very busy day he had ahead! It was pretty cool and we had a chance to ask him some fun questions as well! Later in the show however, we broke down the 4th wall and revealed our visitor to be a Trump impersonator named John Di Domenico! Hes been featured on numerous national shows as Trump and he told us alittle bit about his career, meanwhile, going in and out of that impression and a few others!
JOHN/TRUMP:
Steve Brown of WGRZ, formerly of Fox News, called late in the show to get even more into some of the Presidential Election still underway; as well as some info on the local Senate and Congressional elections here in Erie County. Steve was up all night, but still made some time for us and we really appreciated it.
Bob McCarthy is a longtime political writer for the Buffalo News right here in Buffalo and he’s covered several Presidential Elections. He gave us some behind the scenes anecdotes hes seen over the years and tried to make some sense of what we saw and are continuing to see today.
