In this special edition of the Brookings Cafeteria, Senior Fellows Thomas Mann,Sarah Binder, and William Galston offered their insights and analysis about the 2014 midterm election results.

Binder is a professor of political science at George Washington University, a contributor to the Monkey Cage blog, and author of many books including Stalemate: Causes and Consequences of Legislative Gridlock. Galston, the Ezra K. Zilkha Chair in Governance Studies, was a policy advisor to President Bill Clinton and presidential candidates. He authored the recent essay, "The New Challenge to Market Democracies: The Political and Social Costs of Economic Stagnation."
