Can a Third-Party Candidate Shake Up Nebraska’s Governor Race? | Rick Beard

from The Dan Parsons Show

Rick Beard, the Legal Marijuana NOW Party nominee for Nebraska governor, joins the show to discuss his unconventional campaign and vision for the state. We talk about his background in Nebraska, California’s cannabis industry, and why he believes cannabis legalization could generate revenue for property tax relief, schools, and economic development. Beard also outlines his ideas for industrial hemp, rural economic growth, and reducing the influence of money in politics.Learn more about the Beard for Governor campaign at https://www.rickforgov.org/⸻⸻⸻⸻⸻⸻⸻⸻⸻⸻Support the show by becoming a ‘Friend of Dan’ on Patreon - https://patreon.com/thedanparsonsshow⸻⸻⸻⸻⸻⸻⸻⸻⸻⸻Additional music provided by friend of the show Josh Hoyer & Soul Colossal, support them at: https://www.joshhoyer.com/⸻⸻⸻⸻⸻⸻⸻⸻⸻⸻Connect with The Dan Parsons Show on Social Media:- TikTok - https://tiktok.com/@thedanparsonsshow- Instagram - https://instagram.com/thedanparsonsshow- Twitter - https://x.com/DanParsonsShow2- Facebook - https://facebook.com/TheDanParsonsShow⸻⸻⸻⸻⸻⸻⸻⸻⸻⸻On the go?
