The primary is here but we have nearly five months of political coverage ahead of us. A look at what our California Counts team plans to do next.

In the lead-up to the primary, we at Southern California Public Radio have been collaborating with three other stations in the state: KPBS in San Diego, KQED in San Francisco and Capitol Public Radio in Sacramento on a project called California Counts. 

Our reporters have traveled all over the state in recent months talking to potential voters. Kristen Lepore helped coordinate a lot of that coverage on the air, on the web, and on social media and she joined the show to review what we've learned so far from the project and to talk about what the California Counts team plans to do next, leading up to the general election in November.

We want our audience's thoughts to shape our coverage. So please, send your questions and feedback to us on Facebook or Twitter using the hashtag #CAcounts.
