## Resource

Dana is out this week, so the co-founder of South & Hill Strategies, Colin Reed, is joined by Columnist at the Washington Examiner and Washington Post, Salena Zito, to fill in. They dive into the current partial government shutdown and why the chaos on Capitol Hill no longer phases voters. Colin and Salena also dissect the Pennsylvania political landscape, discussing whether Governor Josh Shapiro’s book tour or Senator John Fetterman’s (D-PA) populist approach could be signals of a 2028 presidential run. I Wish Someone Had Told Me: Colin and Salena look at how population shifts are fueling redistricting battles that could reshape the playing field for this year’s Midterm Elections.
