We are excited to welcome WGN-TV’s Paul Lisnek for a discussion on Illinois politics and to help participants get ready for the upcoming November Midterm Elections.
The League of Women Voters of the Palatine, Schaumburg, and Barrington Areas and various Illinois libraries are proud to partner for a program dedicated to the continued civic education and engagement of our patrons.
Paul Lisnek, J.D., Ph.D. is a multi-Emmy, Cablefax, Telly, Communicator, and Beacon Award-winning television host and analyst. Paul has been the political analyst for WGN-TV since 2008, appearing on all its # 1 rated newscasts discussing political and legal issues of the day. He is the host of WGN-TV Political Report seen every Sunday morning at 9am, on which he interviews the leading political figures in the city, state and country. Paul has interviewed presidents, governors, senators, congressmen, local representatives and mayors too numerous to count over the last 38 years. Paul can also be heard on wgnradio.com, where he hosts a podcast called “Paul Lisnek Behind the Curtain,” which addresses political, theatre and arts, and other areas of interest to Chicagoland. He is also a fill-in host on WGN Radio.
