Episode 45: Lieutenant Governing
8/22/18 -- Secretary of State Bill Galvin and Josh Zakim are highlighted again this week as they each launch attack ads. Then we focus on one race that has flown under radar -- the democratic primary for lieutenant governor. Former LG and current president of the Worcester Chamber of Commerce Tim Murray tells us what it's like to run for the seat.
Plus Becca Rausch is running for state senate and calling for transparency on Beacon Hill -- and 14 other democratic women running for office are joining her.
