Summary
Libertarian Party candidate Lauri Shillings joins the show to talk about her campaign for Indiana Secretary of State, one of this year’s marquee statewide races. Shillings lays out her case as a working‑class alternative to the two major parties, saying Hoosiers want someone outside the “regular system” running elections and overseeing business services. She defends Indiana’s voter ID law but calls for practical fixes for college students, pushes for more transparency in post‑election audits, and wants a modern, user‑friendly state portal so voters can easily see who’s on the ballot, who’s funding them, and how money moves in Indiana politics.
