The final polls are coming in, but why are they telling such different stories? David Burrell, pollster at Wick, explains how polling methods may be leaving Republicans out and oversampling Democrats. @AaronParnas breaks down whether young voters are abandoning Republicans and how affordability is shaping their choices. @SteveHiltonx returns to discuss his hopes for California’s future, win or lose. John Ellis examines how media coverage of the midterms has changed and the political realignment reshaping campaign fundraising.

I see a lot of people fired up that South Carolina was declared a "toss-up" election. Just a reminder that in 2020, it was also declared a "toss-up." Democrats spent $130 million to boost Jaime Harrison. The polls had it tied. Democrats lost by 10 points.

NEW: Republican South Carolina Congressman @RalphNorman tells me @NewsNation that he was not invited to the Trump rally today in his home district for Darline Graham and he told me even if he was, he wouldn't have gone. He tells me he doesn't plan to campaign for Graham before Election Day.

Jon Ossoff’s Political Plans After the 2026 Midterms @AaronParnas believes Jon Ossoff has mastered the political strategy of “not peaking too early.” Parnas says Ossoff has plenty of time to run for higher office, and thinks he will not run in 2028.

“I don’t know who’s going to win this race, but I will say this,” says @MarkHalperin about Abdul El-Sayed. “We’ve said for weeks since the primary, he hasn’t closed the sale with important constituencies: working class voters, black voters. There’s a week to go. My indications from talking to people on both sides is he hasn’t closed the sale and he literally may not be able to get enough votes to win. I’m not saying that’s going to happen, but it could happen.” @LarryOConnor @KevinPWalling

Amen! Thank God for The Morning Meeting! @MarkHalperin @KevinPWalling
Replying to @LarryOConnor
I usually have them on a split screen but turned it off last week. They are so in the pocket of the DNC it was too infuriating. They don’t even try to be fake fair anymore. Total trash. Thank God for the Morning Meeting!

“There’s a darkness around Republicans,” says @MarkHalperin about the GOP days from Election Day. “It doesn’t mean they’re going to lose, but there’s extreme worry. And it’s not panic the way it was a few weeks ago when they panic, but then they close the gap. It’s darkness. It’s a belief that this thing is probably lost unless the unless the analytics and the polling is just off dramatically-- because their polls aren’t under-including Republicans. Their polls are are right on the money from their point of view.”

A local Alaska reporter just revealed that Dan J. Sullivan didn't do any campaign events. Wut. How in the world did local press not chase this guy down and confront him about any of this?!?

Round trip to/from Kansas is a long way to go for a race some Republicans have thought is a lost cause for more than a week.
