A Great Election for Political Junkies

Nate Cohn: “I have a confession: I think this is a great election. It’s way better than 2012. All around, it might be the best general election in a decade.”

“There are a dozen competitive and close Senate contests and, for good measure, there are another dozen competitive governors’ contests. Better still, these close Senate races add up to something meaningful and important: control of the Senate. These contests might lack the drama of a presidential election — and there are plenty of signs of voter apathy in this cycle — but they make up for it with their diversity, collectively addressing some of the most important and analytically compelling questions in electoral politics.”
