  <itunes:subtitle>Join Host Kristopher H. Bilbrey as he welcomes Matt Kantz, Republican candidate for Delaware County Commissioner of District 3, to the show. Kantz is currently serving in the final year of his first term as the Delaware County Councilor for District 3. He decided to file to run for Commissioner rather than seek re-election to the Council. Bilbrey and Kantz discuss the campaign, Kantz's thoughts on Delaware County's future, with Senate Enrolled Act 1 being a major topic on many local public servants' minds, and his plans for the county if he is elected. With the candidate interview over, Bilbrey then turns to the City of Muncie's statement, released at the end of the day. The statement aimed to address the State Board of Accounts' current investigation into the Muncie Parks Department, a topic Bilbrey has been discussing for over a week. #ThePoliticalSpotlight</itunes:subtitle>
