It’s the Friday News Roundup! Host Trenae Nuri is joined by Julia Terruso, political reporter at The Philadelphia Inquirer, and Isaac Avilucea, reporter at Axios Philadelphia. They discuss local and statewide voter turnout this general election and how understaffing at 911 call centers in Philly impacts emergency response times. Plus, how Philly is gearing up for holiday shopping this year.
Our Friday news roundups are powered by great local journalism:
- Philadelphians plan to spend $1,842 on gifts, decor, and more this holiday season
- Philly voter turnout increased, but dropped in many Black and Hispanic precincts — and that could be a problem for Democrats in 2024
- Philly dispatch problems deeper than Kingsessing error
And, your Tip of the Week: How to navigate Philly as we head into Philadelphia Marathon Race Weekend.
