Republicans and Democrats are deadlocked heading into Election Day, with 46 percent of likely voters preferring a Republican-controlled Congress, and 45 percent wanting a Democratic-controlled one, according to the final national NBC News/Wall Street Journal poll before the election.

To put these numbers into perspective, Republicans held a six-point lead among nationwide likely voters (49 to 43 percent) right before the 2010 midterms, when the GOP picked up 63 House seats and six Senate seats.

So this is shaping up to a closer midterm election season, this polls finds.

Watch - no senate takeover and a net loss in the House -

Well, at least now you're not predicting the Dems to retake the House.

I asked you on another thread, atc23, but you declined to answer. So I will ask again: Are you (1) or (2)?

If they believed it was close there would be 24/7 coverage of it. They must believe something else...

This poll would appear to be on outlier, but we'll see soon enough. The internals tell the real story. The democrats are competitive only because they are winning the black vote 92-4 and the Hispanic vote by 20 points. Their position is utterly dependent on encouraging tribalism.

Republicans have a different set of problems, but I'll take our problems over theirs any day. At least the Republicans are not dependent on lying about the opposition and advocating a clearly counterproductive cult of victimization and welfarism as the "solution" to every problem.

Buried in the article, the evidence that shows their headline to be spin...

“But the individual state polling tells a slightly different story: Three new NBC/Marist polls also released this Sunday morning show Republicans with the advantage in Georgia, Kentucky and Louisiana, giving the GOP a clear path to a Senate majority next year.”

The headlines today are spin and chicanery... NBC, Washington Post, HuffPo

Read the details. Have several grains of salt available.

Nate Silver’s 538 has the GOP now with a 73% of taking the senate and making other gains. Yet NBC wants you to believe its “too close to call”.
