Listen to the roundtable as a podcast or watch the recorded livestream on YouTube! By bringing together a panel of seasoned local political consultants who've been in the field, in the strategy rooms, and on the phones - not just pundits looking at numbers from a distance - they cut through the noise and spin to give insights not found in typical news coverage. Panelists:   Riall Johnson, Principal Partner at Prism West   Stephen Paolini, Principal at Bottled Lightning Collective   Lexi Koren, Communications Consultant with PowerHouse Strategic   Crystal Fincher, Political Consultant with Fincher Consulting and Hacks &amp;amp; Wonks Host   &amp;nbsp; As always, a full text transcript of the show is available below and at&amp;nbsp;officialhacksandwonks.com.
