The final Rasmussen Reports Generic Congressional Ballot before Election Day shows Republicans edging ahead by one point, but in essence, the two parties are tied. The survey has a +/-2 percentage point margin of error.
The latest Rasmussen Reports national telephone and online survey of Likely U.S. Voters finds that 46% would choose the Republican candidate if the elections for Congress were held today. Forty-five percent (45%) would vote for the Democrat.
The trend is more important than the margin of error.
The first and only time all year the Repubs have had any kind of lead. Interesting.
Yes.....the day before the election....geez, where have we seen this, before?
They know what’s going to happen.
And a new Politico/Morning Consult poll has the Democrat lead down to +3. That is down from a +8 a few days ago. This is great news!!

Some ground rules for the next two days.
1) I am not gonna hand hold a bunch of “Nattering nabobs of negativity.” There is simply no reason, right now, to feel down about ANYTHING.
2) If you have real evidence of something-—NOT A POLL-—fine. But don’t tug at my shirt tails with “muh exit polls.”
These are total crap, as I’ve explained to you before. Literally, Ds make these up to depress R turnout.
3) The Senate looks awesome and the House is on track.
4) The gov races look like they should: Rs crushing it in AZ, TX, will eke out NV, FL, OH, probably lose a couple of NE governorships, and MI, and could very well pick up OR.
5) I won’t lie: the House races are all very close. Yes, a sudden shift could have us lose by 5.
But an equally sudden shift could have us win and hold all but 8 seats net. These are all, almost every one, very close races and many will depend on indies.
6) @PPDNews especially has noticed in individual races a shift by indies to Rs, in some cases pretty dramatic.
7) He has not polled this nationally, but thinks it IS a national trend. If so, Rs stand to lose only 5-10 seats, while flipping 4-5.
8) In the last week, the #1 issue has become IMMIGRATION, which 100% is an R issue.
9) So, put on your big boy pants or panties, get a muffin and a cup of coffee, vote if you haven’t already, and don’t ping me with every goofball, douchenozzle, dicknipple hysterical rumor.
10) One last note: On election night tomorrow night . . .
10) contd. . . . You will know how things are going pretty early. There are probably 10-15 “in play” seats in the eastern time zone. If we lose every single one, we’re probably done.
But if they don’t call all of those early (esp. say FL26 and 27, VA10, Dave Brat, etc)
10) contd . . . Then you’ll know that we’ve likely held the House.
Yes, it would still be “possible” to lose the House even if we held FL26, 27, Brat, Comstock, and a couple of NY/NJ even PA races, but highly, highly unlikely.
The further west you go, the scarcer the D possible pickups are until you get to CA.
There, some 14 seats are up, but I think in worst case we only lose two, and in best case, none.
11) So, just warning, if you come DM-ing me with hysteria, I’m just gonna ignore.
GOP is gaining 6+ and could double digits....
Holding the house...
And there will be folks crying in the streets tomorrow screaming how the system is rigged.
Dems will still deny their crazy behavior is to blame, because they need those nutters... so they will continue to shrink
Imagine the real numbers, when those voting R don’t answer the phone or the poll.
Can’t be!!!
The fools at CNN say it’s dems +13

Even at RCP, CNN is shown to be an absolute fraud/dnc propagandist.
Check out the dates of the survey — 28 Oct to 1 Nov... BEFORE the jobs numbers came out Friday!
They must have polled themselves.
Why is Politico still polling registered voters?!
Well, we know why.
Red Wave ping.
Check my tagline. I am NOT coming off of it.
“The fools at CNN say it’s dems +13”
Must be over sampling D’s by about 20 points.
Good point! This poll and the CNN garbage are the outliers and everyone else has it somewhere in single digits. Will everyone but Ras have egg on their faces?? We have reasons to be hopeful....that is sure!
