NEW @CookPolitical: The 2025 Cook PVIā„  for all 435 congressional districts is now available. A big takeaway: district-level polarization slightly declined in 2024, and the House map is less skewed towards Rs than it was in 2017. Read my full analysis:

NEW @CookPolitical: Echoes of 2018? Dems are well-positioned to take back House control in 2026 owing to a partisan intensity gap, but the underlying factors (economy, party images) are different this time.

Trump's trade of college+ white voters (numerous in swing seats) for working-class nonwhites (mostly in safe Dem seats) has reduced the GOP skew of the House map. Today's median House seat is R+1, down from R+3 a decade ago. Full report @CookPolitical:

New @CookPolitical: the number of swing seats (R+5 to D+5) has rebounded from 82 to 87, as several previously strong Dem Hispanic majority districts became more competitive in 2024. But that's still down 47% from 164 swing seats in 1999.

Based on results so far, turnout in #FL06 is on pace to be a little less than half of last November, which is a big reason Weil (D) is turning in a double-digit overperformance (though not enough to threaten GOP control of the seat).
