There was a 13 point swing last night in TN-07.

TN07 is a story about gerrymandering: the GOP cracked Nashville into 3 districts when it redrew the 2022 map, destroying the Dem seat there.

Fast-forward: a section of Nashville, which just 5 years ago had a Dem representative, is now voting Dem by huge margins but it's been designed to not matter.

The Trump administration is expected to announce a major weakening of automaker fuel economy standards tomorrow. The result is likely to be US automakers pulling even further back from their electrification plans, and those same automakers falling even further behind Chinese automakers on EV tech.
