PoliticsPA was founded in 2001 by Chris Lilik, a political consultant and blogger from Pennsylvania. The idea behind the website was to create a platform that would provide comprehensive coverage and analysis of Pennsylvania politics, with a focus on state-level elections, legislation, and the activities of state government. Lilik saw an opportunity to fill a gap in the media landscape, as there were few news sources at the time that were dedicated solely to Pennsylvania politics. Today, PoliticsPA continues to be owned and operated by Lilik and his team of writers and editors. Based in Harrisburg, the state capital of Pennsylvania, PoliticsPA covers a wide range of political news and issues relevant to the Commonwealth. The website reports on state and local elections, legislative debates, and the actions of the governor's office and other state agencies. In addition to news coverage, PoliticsPA features opinion pieces, commentary, and interviews with political figures, activists, and experts. While the website's primary focus is on Pennsylvania politics, it also occasionally covers national political developments that have a significant impact on the state. One interesting fact: PoliticsPA has a unique feature called the “Harrisburg Buzz,“ which provides readers with a behind-the-scenes look at the inner workings of the state government and the political dynamics in the state capital. This insider's perspective on Pennsylvania politics has helped the website build a loyal following among political junkies and those with a keen interest in the state's political landscape.
PoliticsPA is ranked N/A among other media sources and has an average of 17,551 monthly visits according to Similar Web.
