Listen "The Hyperlocal Midterms"
Episode Synopsis
Maria and Julio are joined by Anthony Orozco, a journalist who just wrapped up his time as the Latino communities reporter for WITF, and Rachel Leingang, writer of Arizona Agenda on Substack, for a hyperlocal conversation about the 2022 midterms in Pennsylvania and Arizona. They unpack key races in both states and discuss how progressivism will impact state politics going forward. ITT Staff Picks: In the latest Arizona Agenda piece, Rachel Leingang and Hank Stephenson break down what lessons Democrats and Republicans can learn from the midterms. Julia Terruso and Kasturi Pananjady break down John Fetterman’s win and how the Pennsylvania Democrat made gains across Pittsburgh’s suburbs, for The Philadelphia Inquirer. “The heroes of the 2022 midterm elections were Democratic voters and activists, not the party’s leadership,” writes Perry Bacon Jr., in this piece for the Washington Post.
