One Week Until the Midterms

Andrew Walworth, Tom Bevan, Carl Cannon and RCP Senior Elections Analyst Sean Trende discuss the state of the midterms one week before election day and the potential effect of midcycle redistricting. They also look at the prospects for passage of a Maryland ballot measure that would allow politicians to redraw congressional districts, and what it would mean for Governor Wes Moore’s (D-MD) national profile. Then, they discuss a new PAC attack ad aimed at Republican candidate Mike Rogers in the Senate primary race in Michigan that some say is antisemitic. And, they talk about Ohio Democratic gubernatorial candidate Amy Action responding to an ad by Vivek Ramaswamy that featured her estranged mother calling her a liar. Then finally, they discuss President Donald Trump’s recent Truth Social post attacking comedian Bill Mahrer following a White House dinner, and they talk about President Barack Obama coming under fire for remarks about the décor at The Cheesecake Factory.
