Georgia Senate: The Peach State Ripens for Democrats By J. Miles Coleman

KEY POINTS FROM THIS ARTICLE

— A combination of dominant fundraising, stable polling, and a favorable political environment has strengthened Sen. Jon Ossoff’s (D-GA) chances for reelection in his purple state.

— Even if Rep. Mike Collins (R, GA-10) gains ground against Ossoff as Republican voters consolidate, recent Georgia elections suggest Democrats can withstand heavy losses among white voters and still prevail statewide.

— Georgia may look competitive on paper, but the outcome itself appears increasingly predictable.

Anthony Fauci: Dr. Wrong By Stephen Moore

   Poor Anthony Fauci -- the man who became an overnight celebrity when deadly COVID-19 hit these shores.

The 2026 House Map is No More Favorable to Republicans than the 2018 Map was By Kyle Kondik

KEY POINTS FROM THIS ARTICLE

— Republicans made the House map better for themselves compared to the 2024 map by winning this cycle’s expansive redistricting fight.

— However, comparing this year’s map to the district lines in place in 2018—the last midterm held under President Trump—puts the 2026 House map in a different light.

— By a number of metrics, the 2026 House map is no more favorable to Republicans than the 2018 map, and it may actually be a little less favorable.

— The median House district by presidential performance is less Republican, the number of districts that voted to the right of the nation for president is smaller, and the number of plausible Democratic House targets based on history is comparable.
