Episode description
We need to do a detailed postmortem of the Midterm elections. Our speaker is Henry Olsen who is the author of The Working-Class Republican: Ronald Reagan and the Return of the Blue-Collar Conservatism. Henry will explain why there was no red wave in an election despite the Republicans winning the national popular vote by 3% or 3.2 million votes. Henry will explain how the Republicans improved their voting share in very blue urban districts and very red rural districts which didn’t help Republicans win additional seats. We plan on going deep with the political analysis now that all the votes have been counted.
