Lots of detail in the post. Democrats' Electoral College penalty was almost wiped out, there's no bias in the House map at all, and the Senate bias has been reduced, though Dems will have to learn how to start winning races in North Carolina.

Kamala Harris is officially not speaking tonight at her watch party at Howard University.
Miami-Dade presidential results for Democrats: - 2016: 63.7% - 2020: 53.4% - 2024: 44%* (with 84% counted)
On a special episode of “The Intelligence” @imkahloon is our guide through an election-day special. Little is certain, but we explore what to watch as it unfolds econ.st/48IWwdm 🎧
With two weeks to go until election day, the Republican candidate now has a slight lead. But the race still remains more or less a coin toss econ.st/3YvVCgH Chart: The Economist
Imagine going back in time to 2020—not exactly a normal time in American politics—to tell people how much odder it was going to get. wsj.com/politics/elect…
Incredible: the Land Rover that recently hit a 12-year-old girl in a crosswalk in DC, sending her to the hospital, had "94 unpaid tickets worth $19,770 from D.C. traffic cameras, six for speeding just this month and four for running red lights since July." washingtonpost.com/dc-md-va/2024/…

Joe Biden did not go willingly, but in the end the pressure proved too much. This is what might happen next econ.st/3SicRym
You will note that unlike @SpeakerJohnson and other top Republicans, McConnell is not calling on Biden to resign.
For four years, the American people have faced historic inflation at home, chaos at the border, and weak leadership abroad. Our nation is less prosperous and less secure than it was in January, 2021. We cannot afford four more years of failure. Full statement:…
John Tester becomes second sitting Dem senator to call on Biden to step aside. “While I appreciate his commitment to public service and our country, I believe President Biden should not seek re-election to another term,” his statement says.
In a week that has felt like a decade, it could be easy to miss the importance of Donald Trump's pick of J.D. Vance as his vice-presidential pick. Our dispatch from the RNC in Milwaukee. economist.com/united-states/…
Betting market for Biden dropping out is now up to 75%. It was around 50% last night. polymarket.com/event/will-bid…
Our poll with YouGov conducted after the debate shows a two-point shift towards Trump compared with the week before. In line with the other national estimates we’ve been getting. Not necessarily fatal to Biden, but point of debate was to gain not lose. d3nkl3psvxxpe9.cloudfront.net/documents/econ…
