Senate Tracker: Democratic Incumbent Sen. Bob Casey Leads Large In Pennsylvania

Democrats hope to make gains in the Senate, while Republicans seek to take even more seats away from them. In Pennsylvania, a state Trump won by a narrow margin in 2016, Democratic incumbent Bob Casey is well ahead of Republican Rep. Lou Barletta, an immigration hawk trying to repeat the president’s success.

Here & Now’s Robin Young checks in on the state of the race with Chris Potter (@CPotterPgh), politics and government editor for WESA in Pittsburgh.
