"Politics Make Strange Bed-Fellows" : Who is Sean Bowie (Boo-Wee)

Appearing next week here on the same sound-stage here in Mesa on Mesa Morning Live, Swing-District LD18 Democratic Arizona State Senator Sean Bowie and LD ___ Republican Arizona State Senator Bob Worsley are part of the 'great line-up' scheduled live at 06:45 am.
