Question

Which House races does Dan Pfeiffer say to watch first on election night 2026?

Answered from Trump Puts the Mid in Midterms · Pod Save America · 2026-10-30

Dan Pfeiffer starts with Kentucky 6, where Zach Dembo is running for Andy Barr's open seat in a Trump +15 district. Next come Florida 27, held by Maria Elvira Salazar; North Carolina 11, with farmer Jamie Agers; and Virginia 5, where Tom Perriello is running in a Trump +12 seat. Alabama 2, held by Shomari Figures, is his test of Black turnout across the South. Jon Favreau reads Virginia's 2nd, 1st and 5th districts as a ladder from a decent night to a great one.
