    Republicans are tanking with Latino voters. It might cost them the House. (opens the original)

    Excerpt · Critical tone · English

    Read excerpt

    Many of the most competitive House districts this year, in states from Texas to Florida, California to Pennsylvania, have majority or near-majority Latino electorates. In 2024, Donald Trump’s success in appealing to Hispanic working-class voters, particularly young men, fueled his return to the White House and put the political world on notice. Strategists even raised the prospect of a realignment that could give the GOP a formidable edge for years to come. Just one election cycle later, however

    As the Iran war pushes up the price of fuel and food, experts say Federal Reserve Chair Kevin Warsh had little choice but to raise interest rates for the first time in three years. The Federal Reserve is raising its benchmark interest rate for the first time in three years to tamp down persistent inflation after months of war-related spikes in energy and food prices.

In both races, polling showed progressive candidates leading by large margins, but the results proved much closer. In Michigan, former public health official Abdul El-Sayed only narrowly defeated Rep. Haley Stevens to win the party’s nomination for an open U.S. Senate seat.

    Progressive Democrats propel El-Sayed to Michigan Senate primary win (opens the original)

    Excerpt · English

    Read excerpt

    A narrow victory in Michigan’s Democratic primary for Abdul El-Sayed, a quick-talking former health official, over Rep. Haley Stevens, his establishment-backed rival, has put a left-wing candidate for the U.S. Senate on the ballot in a crucial swing state that has long sent moderates to Congress. The closeness of Tuesday’s result – Dr. El-Sayed is projected to win by less than a percentage point – might give progressives a reality check in the limits of left-wing populism in statewide races.
