Delaware Valley Journal

While natural gas, fracking and fossil fuel production dominate the political conversation in Pennsylvania (particularly as the presidential election approaches), Ken Zapinski, Director of Research and Public Policy, warns about the big energy issue facing the Keystone State: Not enough electricity. In a conversation with DVJ Reporter Taylor Millard, Zapinski lays out the growing gap between electricity production and demand. The words "brown out" and "blackout" even appear. How bad is the supply problem? Three words: "Three Mile Island."  Will data centers and tech hubs outstrip Pennsylvania's power supply? The conversation starts here.

Angelina Banks grew up in Philadelphia, has traveled the country, and has even appeared in a pro-Trump TV ad. Now she's living in Springfield, where she's run for public office, and making the case that people of color do not owe their vote to any one party. She joins DVJournal News Editor Linda Stein to talk about the 2024 election, growing up in her "two-union-member" household, and why she really hates the plastic bag ban.

A new poll from Pinpoint Policy Institute shows Pennsylvania voters strongly support pro-growth policies and reject the “new right” populist economic agenda of bigger government and higher taxes. Pinpoint Executive Director Gordon Gray talks about the poll's findings, including a three-point race between U.S. Sen. Bob Casey and challenger Dave McCormick, and what it says about Keystone State politics. "Pinpoint’s new poll clearly demonstrates that across the three critical Blue Wall states, both Republican and swing voters strongly embrace pro-growth policies, including lower taxes, fewer regulations, and smaller government." Gray says. Hosted by Michael Graham of InsideSources.com.

Attorney J. Matthew Wolfe has been active in Republican politics since he was an undergraduate at Penn. He currently is the Republican Ward Leader in Philadelphia’s 27th Ward and he tells Delaware Valley Journal's Linda Stein the Philly GOP sees opportunity ahead. While the city isn't going to flip to red any time soon, there are Republican voters that can be turned out to help Trump carry Pennsylvania, and possibly win a legislative seat or two.

Bucks County GOP chair Pat Poprik knows the Delaware Valley is a Democratic enclave. But surging GOP voter registrations mean her county has more Republicans than Democrats for first time since George W. Bush was in office, and they're rising in Chester, Delaware and Montgomery Counties, too. She tells DVJournal's Linda Stein she believes local Republicans will do their part to help Trump carry the state, in part because Democrats have become so extreme on the issues.
