North Carolina Republicans will have officially dummymandered themselves in to an 11D-3R map. Had they not fiddled with the map this year to target Don Davis, Murphy would have won. Had they taken a different tack after 2022 they could have held even more seats.
Now Democrats are leading in both NC-03 and NC-05, by 255 votes and 196 votes, respectively. If the result holds, Democrats will hold an 11-3 advantage on North Carolina's map, a seven-seat upgrade from the current 10R-4D balance.

NEWS: 2028 is already playing out in the phone logs of a new group of Dem power brokers who won last week. Buttigieg, Pritzker, Moore, Emanuel, Kelly, Booker are among those who’ve reached out to winners in early primary states. Andrews, El-Sayed, Pappas, Haaland etc have gotten calls. Some of these newcomers have priorities they want to see shape the primary, from Medicare for All to Israel to data centers to Indian tribes. w/ @AlecAHernandez @erinpdoherty + @politico team politico.com/news/2026/11/10…

First in @politico: A new-right group launches today to build a bench of young, hardline Republicans. They think doubling down on, not shying away from, hardline positions like mass deportations is a long-term winner: “We watched a complete rebuke of the type of Republicans that were in Congress. Old ideas are for old people." politico.com/news/2026/11/09…

in @politico's Morning Score today: A group of former Republican FEC commissioners is pushing the Senate GOP to confirm 2 new commissioners in the lame duck session. Doing so would restore the FEC's quorum and allow it to resume operations.

NEW piece that I'm PROUD OF: I took a deep dive into what happened with AI and the midterms. Not only about this week, it traces the last 18 months of AI politics — and how an odd coalition found its way together to push Dems towards safety/regulation.
