Board of Health candidate Bridget Sweet - 10/12/21 (audio)

FM #633 = This is the Franklin Matters radio show, number 633 in the series. 


This shares my conversation with candidate for Board of Health Bridget Sweet  


This is one of a series of conversations with candidates for the Franklin Election on Nov 2, 2021. I do this to provide Franklin, MA voters with accurate and timely information that they can use to cast an informed vote.  Publication of the answers or interview responses does not constitute an endorsement of this or any candidate.


We cover the candidate questions as previously developed in conjunction with the community and shared with the candidates in advance. Five of the questions are ‘general’ in nature, the sixth is specific to the role of the candidate. In this case, for the Board of Health.


Our conversation runs about 35 minutes, so let’s listen to my interview with Bridget Sweet.  Audio file -> https://player.captivate.fm/episode/e3b90820-7cbe-4323-9eb2-2c9e12c1a429
