Gas prices, an unpopular Iran war, and a bizarre Alaska lawsuit about the two Dan Sullivans on the ballot collide as the midterm elections enter their final week.
“Radio Atlantic” host Adam Harris is joined by the Atlantic staff writers Ashley Parker and Michael Scherer to break down the final spending blitz, early-voting hype, where President Trump is trying to rally his base, and what a Democratic win could mean for investigations during his last two years in office.
