Summary

With just a week until Election Day, Scott and Jessica break down the races shaping the final stretch — from Andrew Cuomo’s last-minute unlikely comeback bid in New York City to Abigail Spanberger and Mikie Sherrill testing whether moderation still wins in purple America. Plus, California’s Prop 50 could shift the balance of power in Congress. Then: why every ambitious politician suddenly has a podcast, and why Kamala Harris hints she might not be done with presidential politics just yet. Follow Jessica Tarlov, @JessicaTarlov.
