Hi r/Politics, we’re Punchbowl News reporters Ally Mutnick and Max Cohen. Last week, we published the Tally 2026, our election-focused newsletter tracking every moment of the battle for control of Congress one year out from Election Day. We’ll be answering your questions today, Nov. 10 from 2 p.m. to 3 p.m. ET.
We’ve been closely covering the lead-up to last week’s elections, redistricting battles and the 2026 midterms. In fact, we scooped President Trump’s plans for five new GOP seats in Texas back in June. From the government shutdown to health care debates, we’re following everything that voters are taking into consideration for 2026.
Some of the topics we’re excited to dig into:
- Last week’s elections and their impact on the 2026 race
- How Republicans are going on offense around redistricting and Democrats’ strategy to counter these new maps
- The battle for control of the House
- How Senate Democrats are hoping to pull off the impossible
- Key lawmakers and hopefuls gaining and losing influence as we head into 2026
P.S. You can follow more of our reporting by signing up for our free weekday morning newsletter.

Chunky or smooth peanut butter?
Why do you — ok, Jake Sherman — reflexively pimp the convicted felon’s regime?
How does the amount of seats Republicans can add in Texas and elsewhere through redistricting impact the overall state of play for Democrats retaking the House in 2026?
Who is the stronger candidate in the main primary for the general election in your opinion mills or platner
The Virginia Democrats’ plan to redistrict seemed to come out of nowhere. Do you have any idea how long this was in the works, and/or why they only initiated the first step in the redistricting process so close to the deadline imposed by the 2025 elections?
What power is left for the democrats to hand over to republicans to become completely useless?
