I am still digging out from Tuesday night. (Note: I slept until 9:30 am this morning!)
And while I am going to have a LOT more to say about the most consequential midterm of my lifetime — I was born in 1976, two years after the post-Watergate blowout of 1974 — I wanted to first share a bunch of charts I’ve collected over the last few days that, to me, tell the real story of what happened on November 3.
They’re below.
Got a cool chart I missed/should see? Send it to me here: Chris@cheneyroadmedia.com!
Here. We. Go.

The darker red line shows why Republicans got walloped on Tuesday: The American public had turned — hard — against how the president was handling the economy.
