25. Congressional Candidate Ann Ashford

On today’s show, we continue our look into the congressional
candidates who want to represent you in the federal government
leading up to Nebraska’s primary on May 12. Last week, Tom spoke
with Representative Don Bacon. This week, he has a conversation
with congressional candidate Ann Ashford, who is running against
Bacon for Nebraska’s 2nd Congressional District. Ashford speaks
about her feeling that, after growing up as a Republican, the party
left her, so she left the party and became a Democrat who
prioritizes individual views over forced consensus. This is the
second episode of Riverside Chats produced in conjunction with KIOS
and has been edited from a July 2019 conversation. Music featured:
