Jeanne Cummings, The Upcoming Midterms

Jeanne Cummings, Assistant Managing Editor in charge of POLITICO’S Enterprise, returns to the WNDC podium to give us the latest information on the November elections. She has covered politics at every level, from state and local governments to five presidential campaigns. She is a regular panelist on Washington Week with Gwen Ifill, Hardball with Chris Matthews, The Diane Rehm Show, and Inside Washington with Gordon Peterson. She was a moderator at one of the Democratic primary debates between Barack Obama and Hillary Clinton. In 2009, her appearances were included in submissions by PBS and CNN that secured Peabody Awards for both networks. At the Wall Street Journal (WSJ), she won the 2000 Aldo Beckman Memorial Award, the highest honor for daily White House correspondents, for her coverage of the Clinton Administration. She also earned a journalism award at the WSJ for her part in covering the Enron scandal and its connection to the Bush Administration. In recent years, her focus has been on tracking money and politics.
