Election Connection | Cassie Chambers Armstrong - Tim Darst | 3-14-23

Senator Armstrong, who won her seat in the KY State Legislature in a Special Election to replace Morgan McGarvey, talks about her Appalachian roots, the Rural/Urban divide, her legislative priorities and more. Also on this program is Tim Darst, adjunct professor in the Dept. of Environmental Studies at Bellarmine University, who discusses the March 3, 2023 wind gusts that caused massive damage to power lines and power outages across parts of Kentucky, including Jefferson County. He juxtaposes the advantages of decentralized renewable energy sources as a viable alternative to centralized monopoly control of electrical power through coal and other fossil fuels.
