HOLY. SHIT.
Sorry for swearing but….WOW.
What happened in the 2026 midterm election was a Democratic tsunami of massive and historic proportions.
I’m still sorting through the data but I think this is the broadest rejection of an administration/party we have seen since the 1974 post-Watergate election.
Democrats currently control 54 Senate seats — a net gain of seven — with Mississippi and Alaska uncalled.
In the House, Democrats have gained 38 House seats to get to 249, with projecting the party to end up around 257 seats.
I spent an hour this morning answering questions from Substack subscribers about what we saw, what’s still left to count and what it all means.
