Episode 35: Grand Old Primary Candidates
6/13/18 -- The statewide candidates are locked -- so who exactly are they?

Bill Keating in the 9th congressional district.
Then Andy Metzger of State House News returns for an update on the Grand Bargain and the continuing wait for a court ruling on the Fair Share ballot question.
