The Republican and Democratic state conventions have concluded and today, Mark Pazniokas joins us to break down the state conventions.

The Republican convention endorsed socially moderate Themis Klarides for the U.S. Senate. Democrats have endorsed a diverse pool of candidates for several state positions.

Later, we hear from Andrea Comer of the Social Equity Council and get an update on cannabis in our state.
