DDHQ friend Chris Cillizza, who runs So What on Substack, was joined by Chief Elections Analyst Geoffrey Skelley and Data Scientist Maddisen Murrell to talk about Decision Desk HQ’s 2026 election forecast. The race for the Senate is now a coin flip, so we discussed some of the key races there, including Texas and Iowa. We also touched on Missouri’s redistricting situation. We’ll be doing regular updates about the forecast with Chris every couple of weeks from now and until the election, so be on the lookout for future chats!
