I’m John Micek, politics columnist and Opinion Editor for PennLive.com. I’ve been covering the midterm election in Pennsylvania and nationwide. Ask me anything! Posted: 25 Oct 2018 07:06 AM PDT My name is John Micek and I've been covering Pennsylvania government and politics for nearly two decades, first as a reporter for The Morning Call of Allentown, Pa., then, as Opinion Editor and politics columnist for PennLive.com since January 2013. My work is syndicated to more 800 newspapers nationwide by Cagle Syndicate. And I contribute regular political analysis for broadcast and cable outlets in Pennsylvania, CTV-News in Canada, and TalkRadio, a digital, all-news station in London. I've spent the year crisscrossing Pennsylvania, following the major party candidates for Pennsylvania governor and U.S. Senate, as well as dropping into the Keystone State congressional districts that could help determine the power in the next session of Congress. Democrats need to flip 23 seats to retake control of the U.S. House and Pennsylvania could contribute as many as six seats to a potential Democratic majority in Election Day. I'll be here from 11 a.m.-noon EST to answer any questions you might have about the mid-terms and Pennsylvania politics.
