Due to the need to vote on several bills in the Legislature today, this interview with Hon. Mickey Amery will need to be rescheduled.
I'll post a new date and time as soon as I receive one.
Thanks!
Hi supporters,
It has been a long campaign and evening. Sadly, it appears that Team Lavigne won't be elected this time around.
We thank everyone who took the time to support us and got out to vote.
For the rest of the week, we are going to recharge, regroup, and get back to several projects that took a backseat to the campaign.
We'll be back next week ready to bring you even more shows, interviews, and truth.
Much love, God bless.
