Erin BurnettHOST
These are important races that could determine who controls Congress, and guess what? There's Senate seats in those as well.
Erin BurnettHOST
So we'll have, uh, we'll have Dave Wasserman on.
Erin BurnettHOST
Plus, Elon Musk throwing a lifeline to a group spending massively on Ken Paxton, a $150 million of maximum.
Erin BurnettHOST
Harry Enten tells us something we don't know about that funding.
Erin BurnettHOST
So this is a huge shift.
Erin BurnettHOST
It's not sort of a lean Dem going Dem, okay? And look at these five seats currently held by Republicans that are now lean Republican or toss-up.
Erin BurnettHOST
These five all went for Trump by double digits in 2024 I'm gonna go Dave Wasserman.
Erin BurnettHOST
He's OutFront now, senior editor and elections analyst for The Cook Political Report.
Tom KeeneHOST
Jessica Taylor joins us right now.
Tom KeeneHOST
Jessica, I love what Dave Wasserman at your shop says, that there's this huge middle ground that can't stand the Republicans and can't stand the Democrats.
Tom KeeneHOST
What's the latest research of that Wasserman group as you look at the governor races?
Jessica TaylorGUEST
Increasingly, they're moving toward Democrats.
Kate BaldwinHOST
Hmm.
Kate BaldwinHOST
Dave Wasserman, we need your brain and perspective now.
Kate BaldwinHOST
You study each of these races so closely, Dave.
Kate BaldwinHOST
What do you see happening with voters right now in Ohio?
Audrey MooreheadHOST
But before we get into it, we have a correction to make on last Friday's podcast.
Audrey MooreheadHOST
In Friday's podcast, we incorrectly identified Dave Wasserman as a pollster.
Audrey MooreheadHOST
While Wasserman frequently discusses polling, he does not conduct polls himself, and professionally he's known as an election analyst.
Audrey MooreheadHOST
That said, Friday's podcast is still an excellent and interesting dive into Hasan Piker, a speaker who's gained national prominence with his no-holds-barred political commentary and his growing influence on the left.
Tim PoolHOST
It remains far from certain because many of the top pickup targets are in states Trump carried by wide margins.
Tim PoolHOST
David Wasserman, an elections analyst at the nonpartisan Cook Political Report, said Democrats must make breakthroughs in states Trump carried by double digits.
Tim PoolHOST
Even a national swing of 10 points to the Democrats would leave the party two seats short of a majority.
Tim PoolHOST
Democrats also face tougher than expected contests in states they hope to be safe, like Maine or Michigan.
Katy TurHOST
The New York Times reports Elon Musk has poured more than $276 million into Republican groups just since July, including $158 million it, to the GOP's main Senate super PAC and more than $76 million into his own turnout operation.
Katy TurHOST
Joining us, Cook Political Report senior editor and elections analyst Dave Wasserman.
Katy TurHOST
Stu Stevens, Sam Stein still with us.
Katy TurHOST
It's a whole lot of cash, Dave.
7 MINS LATER
Dave WassermanGUEST
And Mike Rogers in Michigan a- a- a, uh, taking a similar approach.
Dave WassermanGUEST
For other Republicans, it's not working.
Katy TurHOST
All right, Dave Wasserman, Sam Stein, Stu Stevens, thank you.
Katy TurHOST
Coming up next, how the DOJ just took the battle over press freedom to a new level.
Tommy GrisafiHOST
When are we going to have Mr. Cook on a premium episode?
Jim WiesmeyerGUEST
Well, we'll have David Wa- my friend at Cook, David Wasserman on.
Tommy GrisafiHOST
David Wasserman.
Tommy GrisafiHOST
Okay.
Jim WiesmeyerGUEST
I'll go, I'll get him on before the November 3rd elections.
Jim WiesmeyerGUEST
He was unable to attend the, the SEPA conference, but he gave an online one.
Jim WiesmeyerGUEST
In private, uh, I think he said it there too, but I asked him what was his personal, not just Cook, what was David Wasserman's prediction, and he echoed what they said in the House.
Jim WiesmeyerGUEST
But he says that, uh, from what we know today, subject to change, he sees the Democrats picking up 51 seats, and he sees the Republicans 49.
Isaac SaulHOST
First, I believe that Piker is a bad guy.
Isaac SaulHOST
I try to be careful passing judgment on people I've never met, but to quote the great pollster Dave Wasserman, I've seen enough.
Isaac SaulHOST
I say this in the most straightforward judge of character sense.
Isaac SaulHOST
I feel the same way about Piker as I do about Texas's Republican Senate candidate Ken Paxson or Maine's former Democratic Senate candidate Graham Platner.
Tom KeeneHOST
What's great about Patrick is he's going to give you the Republican and the Democratic angle as well.
Tom KeeneHOST
Best article I've seen, Patrick, in the last three days, four days, is David Wasserman over to Cook Political Report talking about the doubly disenchanted.
Tom KeeneHOST
Where in God's name is Scoop Jackson? Conor Lamb in Pennsylvania.
Tom KeeneHOST
Where are the Democrats that can come to the middle and take away Republican disenchanted votes?
Chip FloryHOST
my speeches,
Jim WiesemeyerPANELIST
I say for the first time in 50 years, I put EPA as one of the good report cards for the ag sector because they've been very pro-friendly biofuels.
Jim WiesemeyerPANELIST
And there's no doubt about it.
Jim WiesemeyerPANELIST
He has.
