The Green Pages:
See a great resource on the web for details on elections, office holders etc.
I have used this resource for years.
HOUSE Right now, it says Republicans have 235 in the House with 7 vacancies and the Democrats hold 193. Of course, all 7 vacant seats will be filled by this election.
SENATE Right now, it says Republicans hold 51, Democrats hold 47 but also have in their caucus 2 Independents.
Let's decide what are predictions are for Wednesday of next week and thereafter.
Add to your factors the forecast bad weather in some parts of the east. Rat voters tend to vote less in bad weather anyway and, convinced by the media that the rats will triumph , some may stay home
Small eroison in the House. Republican, 229-206. Senate 55R-45D.

Midterms will be ‘most secure’ elections in US history: DHS chief
I’m going to post this on FR in a minute.
You want a dark-horse shocker?
Kaine is still under 50 percent as I write this. Corey Stewart might just beat him.
Senate: Rs gain 5 seats.
House: Dems get Majority by 5 seats.
Wish I had better to say.
(On the bright side I’m VERY confused by this election.)
I am the ultimate optimist. DIMs will lose EVERY election at EVERY level...EVERYWHERE. ALL LIBs will either suicide or self-exile on Wednesday. Sad...so sad.

If I had to use my surroundings to guess, and I am a bad predictor and don’t follow polls, races, etc, I think we might lose the house but should keep the senate. Democrats around here are passionate and motivated. And that switch is traditional in a midterm election. If anything better happens, it’s gravy.
I will drop $500 into the FReepathon if Stewart defeats Kaine in Tuesday’s election.
I am going to be the outlier in the mix:
Super majority in the Senate: R+11
House: Lose some, gain more: R+3
I have a friend who’s doing a lot of work on Stewart’s campaign. He’s realistic and has his nose to the ground. He’s pretty happy with where Corey is, and told me just tonight that he thinks Corey just might pull it off. In fact, I’m being just a tad more cautious than he is.
I agree with you. People predicting the Dems pick up 40 seats. Hell. Why not eighty?
Excellent!
The first “telling’ results should be from NC 9, NC 13 and KY 6.
All well polled, so they’ll show the polling error.
If returns are good for us I’ll sip bourbon, if bad I’ll guzzle: “Tomorrow is another day.”
Senate + 4
Hold House with 2...
House D+10
Senate R+4
Hugin-Menendez will be the race to watch.
Oh Jim, I did not disparage you.
Our strength is in our singleness of temperament while holding a plethora of opinions and seeing this stew from many angles — cook, consumer and serving wench.
I’ve had a cyber deathgrip on LS’s shirt tail since election night 2016.
He’s kept me off the ledge many a time and I ‘stalk’ him [in the nicest possible way] here, now, just to see what he says.
Thanks, LS.
You are the man.

Maryland is voting on “same day voter registration”.
I expect the thugs to be out in force, even here in The Wastelands.
Yes indeed; during the 2016 elections he saved my sanity as well.
I check his twitter and messages here regularly.
