‘People In Politics’ series
I invite politicians from all parties to help voters get to know them - their background, their party priorities and their own passion areas.
Elections bring with it amplified media distractions, salacious drama and op-eds that promote their own political bias.
I offer a fresh approach - it’s not my job to sway your vote, or to tell you what to think. I want you to get to know your candidates. I want voters to be informed, engaged and empowered, from the comfort of their own homes (or listen while in the car).
