The next four months will help determine the future of American democracy.

That won’t happen in television studios.

It happens in union halls, church basements, campaign offices, community centers, college campuses, and living rooms across the country.

That’s where I intend to be.

From August through Election Day, I’m launching the largest reporting project in Mesoscale News’ history: traveling across the country to cover the 2026 midterm elections from the ground, not from behind a studio desk.

I’ll interview candidates from across the Democratic Party. I’ll challenge them when they dodge questions. I’ll speak with organizers, scientists, teachers, veterans, election officials, workers, and voters. I’ll report from races national media often overlook until they’re suddenly “surprising.”

Democracy only works when people have access to honest information, and honest, independent reporting has never been more important.
