The latest fundraising figures for Trump are astounding — astounding in how low they are.

Marty Cohen co-wrote The Party Decides — the book that policy nerds were reading in the runup to the 2016 election. Here's what he thinks about the election so far.

Rep. Gwen Moore's bill is unlikely to go anywhere in the GOP-controlled House, but it seems more designed to troll Republicans anyway.

Bernie Sanders ran on the idea of lessening inequality. So why did Clinton win the primaries and caucuses in the most unequal states?

Federal action on gun laws is unlikely. President Obama has again called for state and local governments to tighten them. Here's what those laws look like where you live.

Donald Trump is 70 today. If he were elected, he'd be the first newly inaugurated, over-70 president. But Hillary Clinton isn't far behind.

In an interview with NPR, Hillary Clinton said expanding the watch lists might be appropriate. She also said federal-local coordination needs to be improved.

Women are finally at the top of a major-party presidential ticket, but they're still far underrepresented among lawmakers.

Both on Capitol Hill and with Twitter's #GirlIGuessImWithHer, some Sanders supporters are starting to come to terms with their candidate's loss.

Sanders tended to win in the northern part of the state, which also tends to be more white and more rural. Clinton's victories were more in cities and minority-heavy areas.

Recent presidents, and Obama in particular, have increasingly appointed federal judges who are not white men.

Economic studies suggest that when people feel economic pain, they punish the sitting president's party.

There's little evidence that vice presidential picks help candidates at the top of the ticket win a state. What nominees try to aim for often is balance.

If recent skirmishes between the two candidates are any signal, gender will factor heavily into their attacks — and that could potentially widen the gap even more.

Polling shows a tightening race between Donald Trump and Hillary Clinton in head-to-head matchups. Bernie Sanders shows more strength against Trump in such polls, but there are important caveats.

It's hyperventilate-over-polls season. Here's some perspective to calm you down.

Sanders has outspent the other candidates on TV ads. But Trump has spent best, in the sense that he has barely had to spend to win voters over.

We used one major GOP pollster's criteria for who the best general-election candidate would be. Donald Trump is not it.

His single-payer health care plan would cost an estimated $32 trillion, according to the Tax Policy Center. And it's not balanced out enough by tax increases.

Does Donald Trump want investors to accept a haircut? Or does he just want trillions more dollars printed? The Donald's messy economic plans show an unsettled candidate.
