Auchincloss is young, ambitious, & maybe a little presumptuous. As chair of Majority Democrats, he has summoned the Democrats eyeing White House bids to Denver for a 2028 kickoff. He's not running himself, but he wants a say in who the party picks: theatlantic.com/politics/202…

"The wall that Republicans had gerrymandered for themselves collapsed into dust.
"Republicans are poised to lose nearly all of the seats that they remapped and are likely to lose many more that blue-state Democrats redrew in response" theatlantic.com/politics/202…

Republican legislators failed to fortify their House majority by redrawing congressional districts—and now the question is whether the parties will escalate the gerrymandering wars or declare a truce, @russellberman and @maddiecarlisle2 report. theatlantic.com/politics/202…

In North Carolina, the GOP had a 10-4 edge in House seats & reached for 1 more. But they stretched too far: Dems nearly won every single House seat in NC. (They'll still flip several.) More on the GOP's gerrymandering faceplant, w/ @maddiecarlisle2: theatlantic.com/politics/202…
