The FourStory Interview: Lorri Galloway

by Jim Washburn

Lorri Galloway

Current Anaheim City Councilwoman and candidate for OC Supervisor Lorri Galloway recently held a meet and greet fundraiser at an Orange Coffee Bean & Tea Leaf, with a somewhat novel approach: you make a nominal donation, and you get to sit and question Ms. Galloway for three minutes. FourStory founder Jon Webb and writer Jim Washburn bunked-up and got six minutes with her, which we share in this audio file.

The audio is a little rough due to the background noise, but you can discern the thoughts of one of the most progressive forces for affordable housing in Orange County politics.

We started our conversation with Ms. Galloway by talking about the recent Seattle election in which voters supported, for the 20th year there, a levy to fund affordable housing, and wondering what it might take to find a similarly broad solution here in OC. (The first male voice is Jim Washburn, the second Jon Webb.)

Here's the interview.
