Journalists Roundtable: May 24, 2018
Democrats nationwide are looking to Pennsylvania as a place where several seats in Congress can be picked up in the General Election as they hope to take control of the House in Washington D.C. In the Senate, Republicans hold a 51-49 seat advantage in Washington, but Democrats are defending 26 of 33 seats up for election nationwide. Turnout in the primaries stood at about 20%. Under current state law, only registered Democrats and Republicans can vote in the Primary Election, so about 1.2 million voters registered as Independents, Libertarians or Greens cannot vote in the spring election. The state House and Senate were both in session this week, with a Senate committee reporting legislation to create an Independent Redistricting Commission and legislative leaders discussing opening primaries to all voters, meaning any voter could vote for any candidate they want in the primary. To discuss these topics and other issues are John Micek, Editorial and Opinion Page Editor with the PennLive and the Patriot-News; Katie Meyer, Capitol Bureau Chief with WITF-FM; and John Baer, Columnist with the Philadelphia Daily News. Our host is Brian Lockman.
