Folks, PSA that things are about to SPEED UP at the top of the hour. Polls are closing in Georgia, South Carolina, most of Florida, and more. And we're going to already have hundreds of thousands of votes reporting from Florida by half-an-hour from now. Fasten your seat bolts, for real.

HAMILTON COUNTY INDIANA TRUTH NUKE IN THE EARLY VOTE: #IN05: JD Ford+27 over Victoria Spartz (R) Secretary of State: Beau Bayh+29 over his three opponents It'll get redder as E-day votes are counted, but OH BOY THESE ARE BAD FOR REPUBLICANS
Don’t forget to breathe, folks. Try counting to four on the inhale, holding at the top for seven, then counting to eight on the exhale. Your nervous system will thank you.
MADDOW: While it's common for one of the houses of Congress to flip to the opposition party, it's exquisitely rare for the opposition party to flip both chambers. It's only happened three times since WWII.
I gotta tell you, every single daycare mom I texted today understood the assignment, and had plans to take their husbands to go vote as well. One of them literally said “I probably wouldn’t have done it without your motivation, so thank you.” A #newSC is coming.

Trump won South Carolina by 18 points in 2024. But his growing unpopularity is helping fuel Democratic hopes of beating the inexperienced Republican incumbent senator and even flipping the chamber.
South Carolina Emerges as Surprise Battleground for Senate Control
South Carolina’s surprisingly competitive race for a US Senate seat could be the difference between a seismic victory for Democrats in Tuesday’s midterm elections or a false dawn for the party as it seeks to leverage voter discontent to score wins in Republican strongholds.

Trump won South Carolina by 18 points. His senator wasn't elected by anyone and admits she's "not that informed on national security." He's flown in twice in eight days to save her from a pediatrician. It’s not working. The poll: www.dworkinsubstack.com/p/great-news...
