    Up all night: Cap-Star staff midterm election debrief

    To say Democrats had a huge midterm election would be an understatement. The party's "blue wave" left it with control of the U.S. Senate and House. On the state level, Democrats established a majority among governor’s offices and either broke Republican trifectas or achieved their own in at least half a dozen states – including Pennsylvania.  Four of the commonwealth’s U.S. House seats also flipped to Democrats; in other congressional districts, the party performed stronger than the last two elections – even those where they lost. And the reverse was true for Republicans: they won handily in six districts, but not by quite as much as usual. The Capital-Star’s team covered all of this and, on very little sleep, debriefed the next morning – on mic.  Folo PA features Pennsylvania-focused audio journalism that emphasizes context, accountability and community impact.  The podcast is hosted and produced by the Capital-Star's Audio Reporter Emily Previti, with editing by Editor-in-Chief Tim Lambert.
