This week we’ve got a collection of conversations with the candidates on the ballot for House District 71.
As soon as Stan Lambert announced he wouldn’t seek reelection – candidates started filing their paperwork.
Liz Case is making a second run for the seat, after coming close two years ago–with the backing of some of the state’s top Republicans.
Newcomer Joshua Ohlmacher joined the race after feeling called to it during a church service.
And Chance Ferguson, who’s previously challenged Jodey Arrington for the 19th Congressional District seat–has thrown his hat in the ring.
Jay Hardaway was unable to make it for today’s show–but we hope to update you on his campaign as soon as possible.
We’ll also preview a musical that’s coming to a stage this weekend that tells a story of healing, forgiveness, and self-acceptance.
