Not bad considering it is RCP. Usually they are behind the curve.

They’re still behind the curve.

I walked out into the blue wave.

Without even a lifeguard on duty.

It didn’t even get up to my ankles

54 isn’t enough. We have too big an opportunity here. We’ll see.

I think we can take a couple more, even NJ.

Yup. They are always behind the curve. I am looking at MT and IND as likely pickups as well.

The last RCP Montana poll was conducted September 19 to the 22nd(Gravis).

THAT’S A DAMN JOKE.

Pollsters are holding back unfavorable(to them) results.

Forgive me, I’m in a bad mood about the election tonight but....
GOP winning the Senate means the dimwit American people can watch their duly elected President Trump be impeached, harassed,undermined and framed by the Pelosi and Maxine run House which will be Dem.

Are they that corrupt and stupid? Yes, I guess so. To vote for the people who scream at Senate hearings and who shove a Senator and his wife in a restaurant and threaten to kill our President? Some America that is.
If that’s what the evil American people want, then they’ll get the countermeasures they’ve been goading us to.

I am at the point where I only support and love FR people. Screw the rest.

If we do give them more Senate seats, they darn well better come through with border barrier funding.

Shame on Montana. They are trucked up with their Rat State Reps. Then they elect Republican Presidential candidates by 20% margins.

I'm less worried about the House. Our gains over the next two years are going to be court appointments.

Even if the RATs take the house, they would have a hard time governing because of divisions in the party - Trump will exploit that ...

Not a fan of RCP’s averaging polls, but a +4 gain feels right. I think the GOP will lose the House though...

RCP - don’t they take averages of polls? - meaning they’re always about at least a week or two behind the curve because it takes a couple of weeks to build a group to sample - when trends start to shift getting closer to election day, they’re going to be left in the dust......

Need 55 to govern. The Lib twins and Romney only have to convince Rand which gives him too much power. You always need to be able to lose those 4. Technically Pence can always be the deciding vote so maybe that would work but 55 is a very solid majority even with a few never Trumpers. 55+ the House means you better get something done or you’re going to lose big in 2020. You can’t always get what you want but you just may get what you need...

I agree with your prediction. I’m sticking with +5

I’ve been vacillating between 54-46 and 56-44. No matter the number, I feel good about the Senate and, frankly, I feel good about the House.
