As expected, Shomari Figures (D) wins the Dem primary runoff, the main event in Alabama’s new court-mandated Black plurality district. Cook Political Report November rating: Likely D (pickup).

Thanks to Stephen Jackson and crew for carrying our trivia team across the finish line, despite my misidentifying Adlai Stevenson as Lyndon LaRouche in the 'failed presidential candidates' photo category. A fun way to celebrate 40 years of Cook Political Report.

How accurate are Cook Political Report's race ratings? Last summer, I compiled CPR's 10,000+ historical ratings dating back to 1984 to answer that question.

Lean ratings were correct ~94% of the time, Likely ratings ~97%, and Solid ratings virtually 100%

Thanks for the credit. It was a lot of fun taking this idea to FiveThirtyEight back in 2016, and kudos to the talented Aaron Bycoffe for bringing this interactive to life then and now.
