What does it take to run for office? A record number of women ran for office this year, and many were first-time candidates who were part of a grassroots movement. This hour, our guests help us understand how to enter the political arena and gain campaign experience. They share their own experiences developing a volunteer base, financing a campaign, attracting donations, and networking. It's a preview of a forum tonight at Brue Coffee. In studio: Gary Pudup, former candidate for the 134th Assembly District seat; longtime volunteer, manager, and adviser for local campaigns; and WXXI volunteer Andrew Hollister , former candidate for Rochester City Council and lieutenant governor of New York State
