RealClearPolitics co-founder and president Tom Bevan joins RCP Washington Bureau Chief Carl Cannon to discuss to discuss Democrats' Tuesday's results in an unusual midterm election. Democrats clearly outperformed projections, but several races remain undecided and much of the data is still unclear. Republicans are likely to take the House with a minimal majority, and the Senate remains on a knife's edge possibly into December. How will the slim margins affect the likely House Speaker McCarthy's ability to lead Republicans? Will McConnell return to the Majority Leader's chair in the Senate? How will a seeming rejection of some of Trump's endorsed candidates affect his power to shape the 2024 election?

Join us each week on Tuesday, Thursday, and Friday as RealClear’s journalists discuss the issues of the day. Stay informed with context and perspective on the RealClearPolitics Takeaway.
