Morning Shift steps out of the studio to host a special two-hour post-election show from Robert Morris University in the Loop. We break down the election results—the winners and losers, the upsets and what this means for residents in Illinois. In front of a live audience, Morning Shift hears from party leaders, politicians, and even some of last night’s winners.

In the second hour of the show, host Tony Sarabia sits down with several of last night’s winners, and talks the future of the political parties with leading Republicans and Democrats.
