After serving for 10 years in the Vermont Senate, Phil Scott became the highest-ranking Republican in the state when he was elected Lieutenant Governor. Scott is now seeking re-election against Progressive/Democrat candidate Cassandra Gekas.

We talk with Phil Scott about how he's defined the role of second-in-command, and why he wants your vote in November.

Also on the program, VPR's Steve Zind provides an update on His Holiness the 14th Dalai Lama's recent visit to Middlebury.

And we dip into our listener mailbag to read some of your comments on our recent program about the pros and cons of owning or renting.
