One of the Best and Brightest
A very dedicated journalist, public servant and forward thinker.
Great podcast
I was one of the lucky ones that got to know Laura when she was county executive. While I held a different view politically, she could always see both sides and respected your view. She was always interested in what you had to say. I enjoy her podcasts and look forward to many more.
Fraudulent
Laura Curran left county workers out to dry! She's a fraud and should not (and won't) ever be elected again!
