In today's edition: Is Nevada's Republican bench completely gone? Plus: Final race calls, the chance the 2nd Congressional District will stay blue and the best ad of 2026. Last week's midterms were a historic drubbing for the GOP. Since Tuesday, Republicans have been pointing fingers and panicking about how they'll recover. But I'm reminded of 2024, when Democrats were in a similar position. On election night, I was at Vice President Kamala Harris' celebration in Washington. Of course, it ended up not being much of a celebration at all. She didn't show until the next morning, when a dour crowd at Howard University worried their party was unfixable. In the two years since then, Democrats have not exactly repaired their reputation. But they are celebrating nonetheless. The lesson, to me, is not that one party is sitting pretty. It's that if anyone wants to hold onto power, they actually need to deliver something to the American people.

You are vegetarian, but the leftover steak is headed for the trash. Do you eat it?

A vegetarian avoids buying meat because of animal welfare concerns. At work events, untouched meat is routinely thrown away, and eating it would neither increase demand nor cause another animal to be harmed.

Should a moral practice be judged by its consequences or its consistency?
