Topic: The 2018 Election and Beyond
Speaker: Steve Kornacki, MSNBC

Steve will talk about the mid-term national elections and the gubernatorial elections this coming November.  He will discuss the issues related to these elections and the results projected for them.  He will also describe the impact of those results on the national and local political environments. 

Steve Kornacki attended Boston University.  He started his journalism career as a reporter for PoliticsNJ.com, a New Jersey political news site owned by David Wildstein, where he worked from 2002-06.  After that, he co-hosted a political news series at News 12 New Jersey and reported on the U.S. Congress for the newspaper Roll Call. 

He joined the writing staff of Salon.com in 2010.  He co-hosted The Cycle on MSNBC with political strategist Krystal Ball, pop-culture commentator Touré Neblett, and conservative columnist S.E. Cupp from the program's inception through March 20, 2013.  On March 19, 2013, it was announced that Kornacki would take over another MSNBC program, Up, airing Saturdays and Sundays from 8 to 10 a.m., starting in April.  Beginning in 2016, Kornacki hosted a daily program from 4 p.m. to 5 p.m., and frequently guest hosts on Hardball with Chris Matthews, All In with Chris Hayes and The Rachel Maddow Show. 

In May 2017, Kornacki transitioned away from anchor duties at MSNBC and toward more franchise reporting for NBC News.  On May 8, 2017, he was named National Political Correspondent for NBC News Group.
