Join Kelley Drye’s [Government Relations and Public Policy Group](/Our-Practices/Regulatory-Government-Relations/Government-Relations-and-Public-Policy) as we present a bipartisan assessment of the 2018 elections. Election analysts **Greg Speed** and **Jim Ellis** will break down key House, Senate and Gubernatorial races and provide a detailed and data-packed assessment of the current state of play as well as the prospects for control of both Chambers in the upcoming 116th Congress and key statehouses across the country.

**Greg Speed** is the president of America Votes. He has led AV as president, and previously as executive director, since late 2007. Under Greg’s leadership, AV has experienced significant growth as an organization, partnership network, and a pillar of progressive infrastructure nationally and in the states. He has led the development of a strong and stable fundraising base, and built robust campaign operations and coordination of independent programs delivering millions of voter contacts.

**Jim Ellis** is President of Ellis Insight, LLC, where he analyzes electoral politics and reports upon trends, and tendencies in American elections. Jim formerly provided political consulting services to the House Republican majority through 2006; has run two national political action committees; and consults with many major corporations, associations and national lobbying firms.
