Hi John,
After a short break, we're back with another brand new Run for Something (the podcast) episode!
This week I sat down with
Elizabeth Wanczak, who first started caring about local government by watching city planning meetings on public access television. (She admits, it was sometimes about as boring as watching paint dry.)
The more Elizabeth watched, the more she understood what was happening and what could be fixed through progressive leadership. When a dear friend who'd been pushing her to run for office suddenly passed away, Elizabeth decided it was time to get in the game.
She ran and lost by just
182 votes -- now she's running again for Alderman of district 4 in Franklin, Tennessee, and she's going to win.
Come learn about Elizabeth's public access TV habits, call to action, and tenacity on podcatchers now:
