With 29 days until the 2026 midterms, new polling shifts some key races in Democrats’ favor. Plus, Rachel Maddow looks at the signs Republicans are losing their political grip on Georgia and is joined by Fulton County Commissioner Dana Barrett to discuss how election officials are preparing to defend Georgia's elections from the president’s potential interference. After multiple failed attempts to severely restrict voting by mail, President Trump now appears to be completely reversing course, encouraging Republicans to cast their ballots any way they can, including by mail.
