Today we listen back on the latest Florida This Week, a political discussion show on WEDU that airs Friday nights at 8:30. Moderator Rob Lorei and the panel (St. Pete Mayor Rick Kriseman, the Tampa bay Times’ Steve Bousquet, Republican Bill Bunting and USF Political Science Professor Susan MacManus) discuss the sudden decision by the Florida Senate to hold a special session on redistricting; the new inspector general’s report pointing to trouble in Florida’s voting system; the presidential candidates campaigning in Florida and Governor Scott’s call for an investigation into Planned Parenthood.

We’ll also talk with Meteorologist Nicole Carlisle at the National Weather Service in Ruskin about the endless rain we’ve been experiencing here in West Central Florida.
