On this week’s Sustainability Now!, your host, Justin Mog, gets back to the campaign trail for another conversation with Kentucky candidates! This week we do some porch sittin’ with Hank Linderman, the Democratic candidate for U.S. Congress from Kentucky’s 2nd District in west central Kentucky (including Bullitt Co., Owensboro, Elizabethtown, Danville, and Bowling Green). Hank is now from Grayson County, but he grew up here in Louisville in the 1970s and has had a stellar music career. Kentucky’s 2nd district has not seen an incumbent defeated since 1884, but Hank is running to unseat Republican Brett Guthrie. Along with Linderman and Guthrie, you'll see on the November 3rd ballot Libertarian Robert Lee Perry, Populist Lewis Carter, and the Unaffiliated write-in candidate Poet Tribble.
