Scott Smith for Governor
Scott Smith

Arizona Edition - Scott Smith has been given a lot of credit for his leadership as Mayor of Mesa.  He’s now turned his sights on bringing that reputation to the Arizona Governor’s Office.  While he has lagged in the past polls in third or fourth place out of a packed Republican primary field, this week a new poll has him moving up to within two points of leader Doug Ducey.  He also received the endorsement of Arizona Governor Jan Brewer.  All in all, he tells KAWC’s Lou Gum it has been a good past 24 hours…(originally aired 08/07/14).

This piece originally aired during the August 11th Arizona Edition.  Other pieces featured in the show can be found below in the related content section.

Lou grew up in Tucson and has a long family history in the state of Arizona. He began his public radio career in 1988 at KNAU in Flagstaff as a classical music DJ and has been hooked on public radio since, transitioning to news after trying his hand at several other careers in publishing and commercial broadcasting. Lou has a degree in American Studies from Arizona State University and was KAWC's Morning Edition host for two and half years before becoming News and Operations Director.
