PA same-sex marriage ruling; then, Pennsylvania primary election results

    Listen


    Guests: Mark Aronchick, Thomas Baldino and Will Bunch

    Judge John Jones yesterday ruled that Pennsylvania’s prohibition of same-sex marriage is unconstitutional. We’ll get reaction from Philadelphia attorney MARK ARONCHICK who challenged the state’s ban. Then, voters across Pennsylvania went to the polls yesterday to vote in the Commonwealth’s primary election. Today on Radio Times, we talk about the winners and losers, how the races were fought throughout the state, and what the results might mean for politics and government locally and nationally. We’ll get the analysis from THOMAS BALDINO, a professor of political science at Wilkes University in Wilkes-Barre, and WILL BUNCH, senior writer for the Philadelphia Daily News.
