Your future lawmaker's thoughts on school finance

Dan Flynn is seeking another re-election to the Texas State House of Representatives, while challenger George Alexander hopes it's his turn to serve the citizens of District 2. 

The longtime politician and local attorney fielded questions from a panel of journalists during Tuesday's debate at the A&M-Commerce Ferguson Auditorium, co-hosted by the Hunt County African American Leadership Conference and the A&M-Commerce Colony of Phi Iota Alpha Fraternity.

KETR intern James Barrans checks in with this week's Friday feature on the recent Relay for Life in Commerce, and how a small Hopkins County community is working together to help the family of a teacher who lost his home in the April 3 tornadoes.

Listen to The Lead for Friday, May 11 above.
