I predict that Republicans will pick up 7 House Seats from the 235 and have 242 when the smoke clears.

I predict that the Republicans will gain 4 Senate seats and by later next week we will have 55 Senate Seats in Republican hands. With only 3 or 4 rascals that makes the idiot in Alaska, the RINO in Maine, Sasse and any other temporary idiot unable to control the Republican majority.

I generally make my predictions (un-schooled, ill informed) on Friday or Saturday so I have them to point back to if my big mouth overloads my hummingbird ......

Please add your predictions and related comments. Remember, we want to know the total swing, not just bits and pieces.

A prediction is beyond my capacity

My Prediction:

Senate: Republicans 56 Democrats 44

House: Republicans 226 Democrats 209

As anybody who knows me can attest, my predictions are universally accurate and well tested. You can take them to the bank*

To All

My predictions:

1. House - basically a wash very little change up or down 1 or 2.

2. Senate - up 6 too 7 seats

Its really hard for me to see what issues Rat congressional & senate candidates run on. “Trump is a poopyhead!” to me just doesn’t cut it! Sorry for being a bit silly & scatological but ‘where do they have an issue to exploit?’.

We pick-up seats in the Senate and the House is a toss-up which the dems gain seats but whomever has the majority has thin margins.

Prediction

Governors,

Rat Gains: IL, ME, MI, NM

GOP Gains: AK

All others held by current party

Senate,

Rat Gains: None

GOP Gains: FL, IN, MO, MT, ND

56-44, which would be the most since we had 58 of 96 back before the depression.

House,

Current, 240 R (including vacancies), 195 D (including Conor Lambchop in PA)

GOP Gains: MN-1, MN-8, PA-14 (Technically the Lambchop seat, he’s running in a different one)

Rat Gains: AZ-2, CA-49, CO-6, IA-1, KS-3, MN-3, NJ-2, NJ-7, NJ-11, PA-5, PA-6, PA-7, PA-17 (Rothfus v. Lambchop), VA-10

Most recent change is moving RINO Leonard Lance (NJ-7) into the loss column.

229R-206D

That’s more measly for the rats than any House prediction, we’ll probably do a tad worse but I’ll stick with this cause I can’t spend spend any more time on predictions! Rats have a good chance in a dozen or so other seats (and GOP has a handful of other pickup possibilities).

Not a ton of attention being paid to State leg races and downballot statewide offices. We should pick up MN AG (Ellison will lose) and I’m worried about losing the Maine State Senate, other than that I don’t know, insights anyone?

The GOP will keep the house with 12 advantage and gain 3 in the senate.

I am prayerfully optimistic. That said, I think the media will highlight every Democrat gain, ignore every Republican win, and even if we hold the House and Senate like I think and pray that we will, the media will concentrate on how the balance has “narrowed,” if it ends up more narrow than now.
Media gonna be media is basically my prediction.

That's a pretty bold prediction. Every Republican here in Northeast Illinois is in a highly competitive race with several predicted to lose their seats. The house seats are very much a referendum on PDJT. Every commercial links every Republican house member with the President as "being too extreme."

The Democrats are doing their level best to control everything north of Interstate 80 in this state ....

seems many predicted House poorly. Larry Sabato & Cook etc analyzed race by race. What did those here base their predictions on?
