The Current Political and Legislative Environment and Election Forecasting

For more than two decades, Charlie Cook has been a trusted and accurate voice on all things political. Using poll numbers, economic indicators and historical data, Cook will discuss today’s political and legislative environments in a balanced, nonpartisan way. He will also share his encyclopedic knowledge of American politics in relation to the upcoming elections, including what key dynamics are driving and affecting the Democratic and Republican nomination choices. He will focus on the implications of states’ electoral leanings, what it all means for the upcoming presidential contest, what will likely happen in the House and Senate, and what the results mean for the two parties (and the American people).
