NPR Elections Special Coverage June 7th at 5pm

On Tuesday, June 7th at 5pm, JPR will broadcast NPR's special coverage of the New Jersey, Montana, South Dakota, North Dakota, New Mexico and California primaries.

NPR, WNYC and KQED are collaborating for the special coverage which kicks off in New York with WNYC’s Brian Lehrer hosting a call-in. Lehrer will hand off coverage to NPR’s Ari Shapiro and Michel Martin at 6pm. Then at 9pm, KQED’s Scott Shafer will pick up coverage with the California Report.

Throughout the evening, you'll hear candidate speeches, newsmaker interviews, reports from candidate headquarters, and analysis from WNYC, KQED, and NPR’s Political Team.

Coverage can be heard on all three JPR services beginning Tuesday at 5pm.

As FM Network Program Director and Music Director, Eric oversees many aspects of JPR's broadcast day. He still hosts the occasional Open Air or classical music shift, and is the driving force behind JPR Live Sessions - our popular series of live in-studio music performances and conversations.
