Special Election Shockwaves — Breaking Points: What Tennessee Means for Republicans
Update: 2025-12-04
Description
A single special election result may be signaling a national shift in partisan momentum. This 2-minute summary (original 10-minute episode) from Breaking Points with Krystal Ball and Saagar Enjeti breaks down why Tennessee’s 7th—and a string of other special elections—should worry Republicans. You’ll get the key data: a 13-point Democratic swing in a reliably Trump district, turnout matching the 2022 midterms, and Democrats outperforming baselines across states. Learn how special elections have historically foreshadowed House majorities, why intra-party fights (from Elise Stefanik to talk of Steve Scalise) matter, and how looming policy pain points like rising health premiums could compound GOP troubles. Ideal for listeners tracking politics, special elections, congressional control, and leadership dynamics. Listen now to get the key ideas in minutes.
