Arlene Violet - Wants Aaron Guckian to Drop Out of the Race
Q: Talk to me about your take on this race and the idea of dropping out to act as a spoiler.

RI Sec. of State Gregg Amore - Bond Question 4
Q: What is question four asking for, and why does it matter?
Question four seeks approval for a bond to fund a dedicated State History Center and Archives, a facility that would preserve Rhode Island's unique documents, provide a public treasure room, and support educational programs; the secretary explains the rationale, ownership of the archives, and the long-term benefits for preservation and public access.
Tim White - Johnston Fire Department Whistleblower Story
Q: what did the mayor say about the claims and how does he frame them?
