One topic we haven't lost sight of, no matter the day's news: the midterm elections in November. The electorate must understand the full context of the issues and what is at stake for American democracy. Here is just a sample of work that our staff has published recently: - Li Zhou, Nicole Narea, and Christian Paz have been asking since August for your questions about the midterms, and now they've answered them. This piece on the stakes of the 2022 midterms addresses the most frequent questions we received, on things like the policies voters care about the most and the long-term stakes of the upcoming election.
- The attempts by Trump loyalists to overturn the 2020 election exposed potential loopholes in the law. Senior politics writer Ben Jacobs explained how the Electoral Count Reform Act could help ensure the integrity of future elections.
- Ellen Ioanes examined how hard it has been for the GOP to pass and enforce abortion bans, now that the impact on people's lives is reality and not just a talking point.
- Historically, the sitting president's party has tended to perform poorly in the midterms. Senior politics correspondent Andrew Prokop explained the theories behind the so-called presidential penalty — and what November's midterms might herald for Biden.
- Vox senior policy reporter Rachel Cohen looked into what the GOP's many competing policy proposals tell us about what might come next if they win back Congress in November.
