Every Single Thing Steve Kornacki Does on Election Night 2024

While the first wave of results won’t start coming in until after six, Steve Kornacki did his first hit on MSNBC to talk about exit polling, which tells us, among other things, that the top three issues on voters’ minds in this election are: the state of democracy (35 percent! A good sign!), the economy (31 percent), and abortion (14 percent).

But the more important takeaway from his initial appearance is that Kornacki has chosen to wear gray pants, not his usual tan, and a gray-and-black striped tie. The combo looks smart and professional, but the colors are a little on the dour side, at least by Kornacki standards. Is this a sign? As Kornacki’s pants go, so goes the nation? No, let’s not go there yet. The night is young, and Steve hasn’t even gotten out his calculator.
