Charles Booker: WCPT 820 Candidate Interview

from Chew's Views with Richard Chew (Featured Interviews) Hosted by WCPT 820

Richard Chew is joined by Charles Booker, 2026 candidate for U.S. Senate in Kentucky. Here are a few highlights from the conversation: - Booker argued that Kentuckians across party lines are frustrated by a lack of accountability and representation from Sen. Mitch McConnell and Booker's Republican opponent, U.S. Rep. Andy Barr. - His campaign is emphasizing voter engagement, organizing in communities that have been overlooked, and support from some former Trump voters. - Booker criticized Trump tariffs, rising prices, needles trade disputes, broad GOP support of data centers, and political name-calling as failures to address people’s needs. - He described a large campaign field program across Kentucky and said continued funding is needed to communicate the campaign’s message down the homestretch.
