INTERVIEW - TOM BEVAN - Publisher of realclearpolitics.com – discussed the Pennsylvania special election tomorrow night, how the outcome of this election could affect the 2018 midterms, and the accuracy of polling leading up to this election

•    Moment of truth for Trump in Pennsylvania (The Hill) -- President Trump and the GOP are playing for high stakes in Tuesday's special election in Pennsylvania. A loss in a district Trump carried by 20 points in 2016 would amplify Republican anxiety about November's midterm elections and sharpen questions about the damage the president's low approval ratings are doing to the party.
•    Poll: Dem leads by 4 points in Pennsylvania House race (The Hill) -- Democrat Conor Lamb has a four-point lead over Republican Rick Saccone in a new poll released Friday, days before a special election for the House seat in Pennsylvania. Lamb, a former federal prosecutor and Marine veteran, leads the GOP state legislator by 48 percent to 44 percent in the new RABA Research poll. It was first published by Talking Points Memo.
