Greetings Earthlings. The recent primaries reminds us of the importance of voting, especially in these troubled times. Here in Massachusetts a shifty undesirable Dem tried to unseat our longtime anti-fascist enviro hero Sen. Ed Markey claiming he was too old. Thanks to smart voters the challenger was pushed back. Closer to home here in WMass' 1st Franklin District House race we were fortunate to have Lora Wondolowski win over a former aide to an unresponsive State House Rep known for a lack of support on forest and other environmental related issues. Lora, on the other hand worked for national groups like the National Audubon Society, League of Conservation Voters & The Peace Development Fund. Lora seems responsive to her constituents, a welcomed change out here. She joins us for the interview.
