Democratic TSUNAMI Predicted on Election Day

Scott Galloway and Jessica Tarlov go live on Election Day to discuss the latest news and their final predictions for the 2026 Midterms.

While millions of Americans are heading to the polls today, early voting has also outpaced the last midterm cycle in key battleground states. What can we learn from early voting data?

If Democrats take back the House, Hakeem Jeffries could make history as the first Black speaker. But his party in Congress is still very unpopular — despite specific candidates gaining the edge in individual races. What will Democratic leadership look like if the party takes back Congress? And how will the Democrats form and communicate their policy agenda to a skeptical public. 

As Democrats begin to contemplate the possibility of regaining control in key Congressional committees, reports say that they may already have their sights set on one of Trump’s biggest frenemies: Elon Musk. How serious could these investigations get? And, is there anything that the Dems will be able to do to limit the corruption in the White House?

Beyond the midterms, another major question is what Trump does next in Iran. But Trump is downplaying the prospect of a return to war, saying he’s “in no rush” to resume strikes as negotiations continue through Qatari mediators. Is Trump really easing up on the war in Iran, or is he pandering to voters before the Midterms?

As results start coming in tonight, there are a few early bellwethers worth watching. Will these races give us an early indication of the broader national picture?
