Episode 57: Chris Frye, Mayor-elect, New Castle, PA

Chris Frye made history on Election Day by being elected the first black mayor of New Castle, Pennsylvania. His historic win also crossed party lines, as Democrats in New Castle far outnumber Republicans in voter registration, and Chris is a Republican. In this conversation, Chris shares his compelling story of growing up on the welfare system then coming full circle and going to work for the same agency that helped his family when they moved to Pennsylvania. He also talks about why he ran, the moment he decided he was a Republican, and his vision for leading a restoration of hope in New Castle.
