The Gazette offers audio versions of articles using Instaread. Some words may be mispronounced.
The chairs of several local counties are complaining that a recent Pints and Politics session featuring gubernatorial candidate Rob Sand wasn’t fair or balanced, and only Democrats attended.
I accept that as a reasonable criticism, and propose that the next Pints and Politics be held with Congresswoman Mariannette Miller-Meeks. I promise I will be there.
