The first real votes of 2026 are in — and the numbers are turning heads. In this week's Facts About PACs, Micaela Isler, David Schild, and Adam Belmar are joined by political analyst Jim Ellis for the Ellis Insight on primary night in Texas, North Carolina, and Arkansas. Jim breaks down the headline that's raising alarms for Republicans: for the first time in decades, more Democrats voted in the Texas primary than Republicans. From the Cornyn-Paxton Senate showdown to the stunning Dan Crenshaw defeat, the redistricting shake-ups reshaping House races, and breaking news on a Senate seat opening up in Oklahoma — this episode covers it all. Plus, Jim delivers his big-picture read on what these early results signal for the 2026 midterms and what Republicans must do to turn the tide.
