On Election Day, Erick Erickson tracks Republican turnout in Georgia, Texas, Ohio, Florida and Nevada, blasts Vivek Ramaswamy and Roger Marshall for torching their own campaigns, and explains why Pete Buttigieg is catching heat for distancing himself from Abdul El-Sayed and Hassan Piker. He takes calls on single-payer health care, the 2028 fallout for J.D. Vance and Rubio, and why a third party never gets off the ground, then reads NASA Administrator Jared Isaacman's plea to stop the conspiracy theories after the Florida Lear 60 crash.
