This is first of three Scrum conversations with candidates for Mass. Governor. 

 Jay Gonzalez is one of the three hopefuls vying for the Democratic nomination for governor of Massachusetts. The winner will face off against incumbent Republican Charlie Baker this November. 

 Gonzalez sat down recently with WGBH News Scrum podcast hosts Adam Reilly and Peter Kadzis. Shira Schoenberg, who covers the State House for The Springfield Republican and masslive.com, joined the conversation.

Single payer health care, the millionaires tax, and the proper role of state government were among the topics discussed.
