There was a lot at stake in the American midterm elections. The loss of the House will greatly impact Biden’s ability to accomplish his agenda in his last two years as president. But, Republicans did not win nearly as big as expected. The red wave was a fizzle. Democrats held on in important races and some unexpected upsets that led to doubts about Trump’s capacity to endorse candidates. What are the elections’ key takeaways?
Altamar hosts Peter Schechter and Muni Jensen are joined by Paul Maslin, a leading pollster and campaign strategist. Altamar’s ‘Téa’s Take’ by Téa Ivanovic examines the Hispanic vote in the United States.
