Tim WeisbergHOST
They retain their position, but they assume the duties of the governor.
Tim WeisbergHOST
So it would be the secretary of state, and then after that is the treasurer, and then after that is the auditor, which is how we got in that position a while ago where none of those people were in town and Diana DiZoglio, the auditor, became the acting governor.
Tim WeisbergHOST
So that's, that's the way it'll work.
Tim WeisbergHOST
If Mike Minogue wins, there just won't be a lieutenant governor for four years.
Tim WeisbergHOST
And then after the secretary of the commonwealth, it's the treasurer, and then after the treasurer, it's the auditor.
Tim WeisbergHOST
If you remember, there was a situation a while back where, like, none of those folks were in Massachusetts, and Diana DiZoglio, the auditor, became the acting governor.
Tim WeisbergHOST
You know, she was, she was the person who was supposed to, uh, execute the office of governor.
Tim WeisbergHOST
And there was all this speculation that she was going to sign an executive order demanding the audit to take place because she was governor for a day.
Elizabeth DionneGUEST
They're a third party.
Elizabeth DionneGUEST
So the two people they've endorsed in Massachusetts are me and Diana DiZoglio.
Michael DowHOST
Hmm.
Elizabeth DionneGUEST
If you go read their pledge that they ask candidates to take, every candidate of every party should sign that pledge.
Elizabeth DionneGUEST
It's a commitment to honor the rule of law and the Constitution.
Elizabeth DionneGUEST
Every politician should sign that.
Elizabeth DionneGUEST
Diana DiZoglio and I are the two that the Forward party decided stood for open, transparent government, audits, open meetings, everything that I've lived by as a local elected official that I wanna take to the treasurer's office.
Sue TimberlakeHOST
What in your life has been, um, like, like do you look back on for, for, for this job coming up? Like, that if you, if you are elected, like, what in your life experience has been, uh, helpful?
Howie CarrHOST
One of them, who was a big campaign contributor for Senator Cyr down there, another, another one from the, the, the Maura Healey group, uh, if you know what I mean, uh, he charged the state two...
Howie CarrHOST
This was Diana Dizoglio, the state auditor, a Democrat, wrote a report about this.
Howie CarrHOST
This guy, this delivery chauffeur service owner, charged the state $240 for transporting a Haitian 160 feet.
Howie CarrHOST
160 feet, 240 bucks.
Mike MinogueSOUNDBITE_SPEAKER
Were people buying, and how many young people, old people were poisoned with the cocaine? Was fentanyl mixed in? What happened? Did anyone die? Why have we not learned more? Why has she not giving us information? And if you notice, none of this is ever picked up by the attorney general.
Mike MinogueSOUNDBITE_SPEAKER
The only one fighting this crime and corruption is the, uh, US Attorney Leah Foley, as well as our State Auditor Diana DiZoglio.
Mike MinogueSOUNDBITE_SPEAKER
Everywhere those two look, they find waste, fraud, and corruption, and that's what we gotta get rid of.
Grace CurleyHOST
Now, he has another debate with Maura Healey.
Jim BraudeHOST
Legislature's thwarted every effort.
Jim BraudeHOST
The other day, uh, Diana DiZoglio was on the show, said she's requested meetings with your colleague, the governor, for a year and a half.
Jim BraudeHOST
She's never even agreed to meet with her.
Jim BraudeHOST
Uh, uh, so i-i-i- is that not an issue that should concern voters come now through November third?
Tom ShattuckHOST
This is, she goes to, um, the, the legislative audit.
Tom ShattuckHOST
They go to the, talk about the legislative audit, and at some point, uh, at some point, Diana Dizoglío, Dizoglío, Dizoglío, is brought into, uh, the conversation.
Tom ShattuckHOST
It's, it's a, this is edifying, and this is satisfying.
Tom ShattuckHOST
Cut 10.
Phil BishopHOST
Yeah.
Phil BishopHOST
And one thing, Dave, I wanna, I wanna bring it back to you for this, uh, like, a little bit about when we talk about public records, one of the big champions of this m- measure is State Auditor Diana DiZoglio, who is sort of inextricable from an attempted audit of the legislature that was approved by voters in 2024.
Phil BishopHOST
It has been kind of one of her, like, north stars on, on her, you know, as, as an auditor.
Phil BishopHOST
I, uh, I wanna ask, you know, from your perspective on this, is this d- are these nested subjects? Do these, like, share a partial, is, it, it, a parcel in, in this conversation? Is Diana DiZoglio supporting this public records law as part of her wider thrust to try to get more information out of the legislature as auditor?
Dave EisenstadterPANELIST
She may be.
Dave EisenstadterPANELIST
I mean, it's inter- I think our-- So just to, [laughs] just to zoom out even further a little bit, our state, um, ballot question system, some people don't like it.
Dave EisenstadterPANELIST
...
Dave EisenstadterPANELIST
in the legislature don't like it.
Jim BraudeHOST
Do you trust the court to do the right thing? And if the Dems win in November, should they make reforming the Supreme Court a top priority? Caller check.
Jim BraudeHOST
Then we'll begin our ballot question series starting with question one, State Auditor Diana DiZoglio.
Jim BraudeHOST

24 MINS LATER
Jim BraudeHOST
In 2024, 72% of voters approved a ballot question allowing the state auditor to audit the legislature.
Jim BraudeHOST
Two years later, you all know there's no audit, and a new question on the ballot this cycle opens a new path to achieving at least parallel goals, more transparency into state officials by applying state public record laws to the governor's office and the legislature.
Jim BraudeHOST
Joined now in Studio 3 by State Auditor Diana DiZoglio, who's the leader in the effort to get ballot question one passed.
Jim BraudeHOST
There is no formal opposition, but there is opposition.
Lorena BettsGUEST
First of all, I am very, very proud to have organized and co-organized pro-democracy rallies.
Lorena BettsGUEST
And I'm glad this question came up because in one of our rallies, we actually brought Diana DiZoglio to speak.
Lorena BettsGUEST
There are several ways of stepping into the community organizers since you brought it up, that as a community organizer, as leaders, we can raise awareness about an issue within the community.
Lorena BettsGUEST
One of the ways we did bring Diana DiZoglio to speak and raise awareness because a lot of people at the time were not fully aware about what was going on with the audit situation.
Lorena BettsGUEST
We also have held forums to inform the community.
Lorena BettsGUEST
We have also called, we hosted campaigns, meaning we communicate with people to all call the governor's office or all call or email our legislators asking them to support the audit.
Lorena BettsGUEST
I helped organize for signatures.
Lorena BettsGUEST
I helped to, I voted for the audit.
