Generally speaking, the most, if you look at that top question, which party will take the House in 2026?
Only one time, to my knowledge, fact check me if I'm wrong on this,
In American history, it has the same party that won the White House held on to a House majority in Congress between a presidential and a midterm election.
People always get upset.
People always get disillusioned.
It always flips back the other way.
That's just the reality of the pendulum swing of American politics.
So it's easy to be like, oh, my gosh, the whole country is in turmoil.
We're all disagreeing.
This is so normal for America.
in politics.
It doesn't even begin to faze me at all.
Where this midterm election will get really interesting is the redistricting efforts that are happening in states all over the country.
Generally speaking, every state has a different process to draw their congressional districts, every single one of them, which gets really confusing and muddy and not a great standard for all of our congressional districts across the country.
But basically, each state gets to decide how they draw the shape of where your congressman who represents you in the House of Representatives actually comes from.
Which is how you end up getting these weird lobster claw looking things like they just introduced in Virginia.
Chicago has a congressional district that literally looks like a U, like it is so thin and it looks like a U through the entire city of Chicago.
It's horrifying.
But different states have used these to their political advantage basically throughout everyone's lifetime on both sides to try to be more representative of the state population makeup in whatever way that they could.
There has been an interesting conversation related to how race factors into this after the Civil Rights Act and particularly after the civil rights movement, where Democrats largely were promoting this idea of doing race based congressional districts and trying to assume that.
