I can hear it this time! Great job. There were some problems. - "1960" is not clear. The combination of KST ("siksty") needs to be clearer. - the final "s" on "elections" and "votes" was not clear. - the past tense of "beat" is "beat." (not "beated") - Your pronunciation of the Z in "zero" was not correct. You said a zh sound, /ʒ/. Z should be exactly like S, but with the voice engaged: the vocal chords sounding behind the S sound. Your tongue needs to be closer to the back of your teeth. - You said an L instead of an R in "zero." - Your KIT vowel, /ɪ/, often sounds like a FEED vowel, /i/. - it's electORal, not eLECToral. Keep up the good work!
