| 0:00.0 | All right, it's election night in America, everyone, and this is a very big one. |
| 0:14.4 | We are following multiple primary elections being held in six states across the country. |
| 0:19.0 | And in just one hour, the one and only Rachel |
| 0:21.6 | Maddo is going to be here to lead tonight's special coverage of all of those races. |
| 0:26.7 | In just a few minutes, Democratic Senator John Ossoff is going to join me to weigh in on tonight's |
| 0:31.2 | results and talk about the path for Democrats to retake the Senate as he wages a re-election |
| 0:36.8 | campaign of his own in Georgia. He is one of |
| 0:39.4 | the most targeted Democrats in the country. Now, I should tell you right off the bat, |
| 0:44.0 | that polls have just closed in the state of Iowa, and we already have something kind of somewhat of a |

| 1:45.1 | There are two rising stars in the Democratic Party who are vying for that nomination, |
| 1:50.3 | state representative Josh Turrick and state senator Zach Walls. |
