Channel 11 talked to Kris Kanthak, an associate professor of political science at Pitt, about what that process looks like.
“The vetting process now means that people are talking to folks who went to college with Josh Shapiro, who were in his law school study group, who lived across the street from him when he was a young lawyer. They are going through everything,” Kanthak explained.
