Republicans, at Donald Trump’s behest, carried out partisan gerrymandering plans to try and make GOP-held seats in the House of Representatives less competitive ahead of elections this year. But, the midterm results suggest that plan backfired in a big way. What lessons will each party learn from what happened? Plus, we look at the state of play in the U.S. Senate races in Alaska and Mississippi, and why cries of election denial have been muted following Tuesday’s votes. This episode: senior political correspondent Tamara Keith, voting correspondents Miles Parks & Ashley Lopez, and senior national political correspondent Mara Liasson.
