Electing Z Vote Z

In this episode of Electing Z, Alan interviews Rep. Ryan Fecteau, Speaker of the Maine House of Representatives. Speaker Fecteau was born and raised in Biddeford, Maine, and attended The Catholic University of America in Washington, D.C., where he studied political science and theology and religious studies. He previously chaired the LCRED Committee in the 128th Legislature and now serves as the Assistant House Majority leader. His main focus areas include being a strong voice for seniors, standing up for public education, and making Maine more attractive for young people to work, live and raise a family.

A conversation with Councilman Ed Ford Jr., who at the age of 23 is currently serving on the Middletown, CT Common Council.

Welcome to Electing Z! My name is Alan Cunningham, and through Vote Z, I will be hosting a new podcast called Electing Z. Over the next year, I will be bringing you in depth interviews with young elected leaders across the country. As Vote Z worked throughout last year to get young people to vote, we hope these conversations will inspire Gen Z students and activists to take the next step and run for office themselves. Stop by next week, where we will be dropping our first episode.
