8 days away from election. Nate got the house looking like 192 Dems in "solid" territory. That means the forecast is looking like 192 Dems are expected to win pretty easily. If that number holds then they would only need half of the "lean Dem" (17) races to go their way and maybe a few of the "toss ups" (23) and they'd control the house.

I swear if they wrong about this... :ufdup:

Even if they control the house the only thing that’s going to pass is budget stuff. They won’t have the votes to try anything dangerous. They won’t be able to cobble together a consistent caucus.

Let’s start looking at senate races for 2020.

I'd have Cacanaugh making daily appearances in front of house committees :whew:

I'd be looking into Cheeto's financial records too :smugbiden:

As for the 2020 races, there's going to be a ton of incumbent GOP up for election so I am optimistic we could turn a few there but we'll see I gotta see how real these 2018 numbers are first :stopitslime:

Turtle Mitch is up in 2020. Who’s going to run against him? Lamar Alexander from TN is also up. Who will run against him?

BALTIMORE — So far more than double the number of people has voted early in Maryland compared to the midterms four years ago.

State election officials told The Baltimore Sun nearly 170,000 people have voted through the first two days of early voting through Friday night. The newspaper says the number of voters each day was more than twice the numbers for the first two days in 2014.

High early-voting levels are occurring elsewhere, as voters are energized in the current political environment. The top race this fall is for governor between Republican incumbent Larry Hogan and Democratic challenger Ben Jealous.

Early voting in Maryland lasts through Nov. 1, with 79 polling stations open 10 a.m. to 8 p.m. Same-day voter registration is available during early voting but not on Election Day.
