On WestSouthwest, we hear from two candidates running for state House seats in Kalamazoo County. Democrat Annie Brown is running in the district that includes Van Buren County and northwest Kalamazoo County. Libertarian Logan Fleckenstein is seeking the seat that includes the city of Kalamazoo. 

Annie Brown ran two years in the 66th state House District. The South Haven School Board member is making her second bid for the seat. 

Logan Fleckenstein says he's wanted to run for political office since he was 13 years old. He's now the Libertarian candidate in the 60th state House district.
