Thank you so much for having me. Why don't you start by letting us know what you're running for and what your party affiliation? Sure. I am running for the 91st Assembly District, and I'm running as a Democrat. The 91st Assembly District pretty much encompasses the city of Eau Claire. There's not a part of the 91st that goes outside of the city limits. (00:50–00:55)
