With the 2020 election behind us and Joe Biden the projected winner, we examine what the results really tell us about the election and the American people. The storm has finally passed... well, most of it. Election Day 2020 has come and gone, and with many states still counting (or recounting) ballots, projections indicate that Joe Biden emerged the victor, having been first to claim the required number of Electoral College votes. Meanwhile, amidst claims of voter fraud, incumbent President Donald Trump has yet to concede the election, claiming that he "WON BY A LOT."
In the aftermath of one of the most contentious U.S. Elections in recent memory, we look at the way media reported on the outcome, as well as how the numbers on many (if not most) polls being reported by the media were wrong to a significant degree. Joining us to discuss the polling problems in the 2020 Election is Professor W. Joseph Campbell with American University in Washington, D.C., whose new book Lost in A Gallup addresses polling failures throughout time, and what it tells us about the 2020 election. Finally, we examine what the results really tell us about the election, and more importantly, the minds and hearts of the American people.

Election Day has finally arrived... and we analyze all of the news leading up to this highly anticipated election between incumbent Donald Trump, and Democratic challenger Joe Biden.
The day has finally arrived... and as many Americans are heading to the polls, millions have already voted in what has been one of the most significant and controversial elections in recent memory. We look at the final polls, and predictions among the punditry heading into the final call before tonight's results... which may not come until tomorrow, or perhaps even later in the week.
Undeterred by warnings about how long ballot counts may take, veteran analyst James Carville says we'll know by 10 PM tonight who the clear winner of the 2020 Election will be. However, could there still be a shakeup? We look at all of this in the final hours before Election Night coverage begins, and Americans await the results that may determine the next four years of our lives.

With just one week until the U.S. Presidential Election of 2020, we look at the final debate performance and factors that could lead to an upset on November 3rd.
Happy Halloween everyone... and if ever there was a time when life in general felt like a scene out of Invasion of the Body Snatchers, it would have to be in 2020. Walking down the street, one feels compelled to look behind them frequently, and often glancing suspiciously at others as we wonder, "are they for, or against me? Are they infected? Hell, am I infected?"
With so much madness in our world, we attempt to make sense of what the polls convey about the forthcoming election, as well as what the candidates positions are on key issues like health care (in the age of COVID 19), and much more on this edition of Middle Theory.

As the 2020 Presidential Election fast approaches, we discuss "dueling town halls," the controversy surrounding Hunter Biden's laptop and its possible connections to Russian Intelligence.
"October Surprise" anyone? No really... anybody? Well, if you're like us, things couldn't really get any more hectic than they already are this election season. After recapping the "dueling town hall" events held simultaneously by President Trump and former Vice President Joe Biden last week, we turn our attention toward the controversy surrounding Hunter Biden's laptop, and what may be its connection with a Russian Intelligence operation.
The Washington Post and other outlets have reported on the likelihood that a hard drive obtained by Rudy Giuliani, purportedly a copy of a hard drive that belonged to Joe Biden's son, Hunter, could be associated with Russian Intelligence efforts to sway the 2020 U.S. Election. Disputing this idea, leading conservative voices that include Director of National Intelligence John Ratcliffe, who claims there is no intelligence in support of this idea. This, despite 50 former intelligence officials who now say this has all the earmarks of a Russian Intelligence Operation. So who or what are we to believe? We dive into the fray and sort out the existing details on this week's edition of Middle Theory.

This week we recap the 2020 Vice Presidential Debate, along with commentary on the beginning of controversial Senate Confirmation Hearings for prospective Supreme Court Justice Amy Coney Barrett.
2020 continues to play for keeps, as we lose another icon with the passing of guitarist virtuoso Eddie Van Halen. While many mourn his loss, not everyone has been so sympathetic in light of the news. Then turning our attention from music to politics, we get our weekly Election Update, and a recap of the highlights and low points from the recent 2020 Vice Presidential Debate.
Then turning our attention to recent developments with the Supreme Court, the Senate began hearings today in an effort to move toward confirmation of Amy Coney Barrett to fill the seat left by the late Ruth Bader Ginsburg. Controversy quickly ensued, with many Senate Democrats decrying the hearings in midst of the recent White House coronavirus outbreak, with vocal opponents including potential future Democratic Vice President Kamala Harris. We way in on the controversial hearings, and how Barrett's religious views have taken center stage in the debate over her nomination.
