One’s a Republican, the other a Democrat. One’s from New Britain, the other from Bristol.
So what, then, do Mayors Erin Stewart and Ellen Zoppo-Sassu have in common?
This hour: women in public office. We explore the latest campaign trends and we also hear from you.
Do you think enough women seek out positions of political leadership? We take your calls, tweets, and emails.
Plus: a tribute to one of Thanksgiving’s most coveted fruits -- the cranberry.

It’s a conversation we guarantee will not “bog” you down.
