That's a fair question to ask for those involved in two of our topics on this week's edition of the Capital Notes Podcast.

For John Perez, the soon-to-be Speaker, it's the only real question after several weeks of palace intrigue about the battle for the top job. And for the still non-existent citizens redistricting commission, it's also a valid question... after revelation that the process is already projected to run short on cash.

Capitol Weekly's Anthony York and I also check in on the saga over the next lieutenant governor, a saga that took a new twist just hours after we recorded this podcast on Thursday.
