Episode Details

One state could decide the entire U.S. Senate—and Democrats are fighting to flip it. Ben Shapiro breaks down the biggest battleground races of the 2026 midterm elections, from Texas and Michigan to Maine, Iowa, and North Carolina, exposing what the Senate polls, early voting numbers, and electoral map really mean for Republicans and Democrats. With control of Congress on the line, can the GOP hold its Senate majority, or is a Democratic takeover coming on Election Day?
