- Hello, this is Jack from ToFluency.com.

Now, today we are going to have a conversation in English

giving you an English lesson on the election,

the U.S. election, which is happening in-

Now, what we're going to do in this video is

so that you can talk about this election in English

and learn some vocabulary, such as left wing,

And we're going to just have a discussion on this election

but, more importantly, give you the vocabulary

while we are gonna be talking about the election

and beliefs about the candidates involved,

out of the conversation as much as possible.

or who we want to win, but it's more of a discussion

before we get into a lot of the nitty gritty,

is we're just going to lay out the foundation

of the election and talk briefly about what it's all about,

and it's different to what I'm used to from the UK.

- And who are we voting for in this election?

but what type of things are we voting for?

- So obviously there are more elections that happen

And so that's gonna be one of the biggest

and definitely one of the most talked about positions

Also we have senators, depending on where you live,

who are up for election, House of Representatives,

and then a lot of other government positions too

Because the president, that's the big one,

And I'm sure you know it's Donald Trump versus Joe Biden.

it's really overtaken by the Democratic candidate

And we'll talk more about those two parties later

But this is the big one, the presidential election,

and people are saying it's the biggest election

- I mean, yes, there is always a lot of hype,

between people who are considering voting Republican

and people who are considering voting Democratic,

- Yeah, or the outcome is going to be more important

So, yeah, there were different kinds of elections,

the big one, the president, but then you also have,

you say it depends where you live, the senators,

the representatives, everyone voting for representatives.

And these two are both, they represent Congress.

Now, we're not gonna go into what that all means

We're not probably the best at explaining this,

who represent everyone who lives in a certain area.
