2024 Election Season and PBS Coverage Updates

As the 2024 election season heats up, PBS has announced an extensive lineup of news, public affairs, and documentary programming, including coverage of the Democratic National Convention and a special on the Electoral College. Local elections are also in focus, with primaries being held for state House seats in Florida's Districts 89 and 94, and Kansas' 2nd Congressional District seeing a race between two Democrats and five Republicans. In Wisconsin, the partisan primary on August 13 will feature six contested races, all on the Republican ballot, including key races for U.S. Senate and State Senate seats. Early voting for these primaries has already begun in some areas, such as Palm Beach County and Washington County. These elections are critical as they may shape the political landscape ahead of the November 2024 general election.
