A Double Rating Jump in Iowa and a Double Endorsement in Arizona

This week, Carrie, Jessica and Matthew look at two gubernatorial races where Republican primaries could complicate the GOP's efforts to win in states that both went for President Donald Trump in 2024. Matthew talks about what's behind our rare "double jump" ratings change in Iowa this week, where the race moved from Solid Republican to Lean Republican. And Jessica also delves into Trump's double endorsement in the Arizona governor's race. And don't miss our new segment — "stories we're obsessed with" — featuring... John Wilkes Booth?
