Democrats hold a slim lead over Republicans on a poll of U.S. adults' preferences for which party they want controlling the House after November's midterm elections.
In an Economist/YouGov poll released Wednesday, 34 percent of U.S. adults said they wanted to see Democrats retake control of the House, while another 32 percent said they wanted Republicans to maintain control of the chamber.
Another 13 percent say they want control in the lower chamber to be split between the two parties, while more than 20 percent of respondents didn't have a preference between the two parties.
Democrats hold an 8-point advantage among women in the poll, while Republicans hold a 4-point lead over Democrats among men. Independent voters surveyed in the poll broke for Republicans, giving the party a 5-point lead over Democrats among unaffiliated voters.
Democrats' lead in the poll has slipped from the same poll taken towards the end of August, which showed Democrats with a 6-point lead at the time.
The poll's release Wednesday followed the release of another poll, from NPR/Marist, that found the Democrats with a double-digit lead over Republicans among registered voters...

I wonder what LS has to say about this.
Final Economist/YouGov Poll shows Clinton with a 4-point national lead
Have you not learned? Polls LIE!
FAKE polls are FAKE NEWS.
AND how can you tell the one or two blind squirrels from all the rest?
You CAN’T! So, don’t believe ANY OF THEM!
Just ask Hillary.
This number is also the same amount that complain about "gridlock" when they get their wish.
Do not depend either on the “correctness” of the poll, or that its implictaions will hold.
Assume that Democrat WILL “get out the vote”, and gear up to get out an even BIGGER vote for our side.
Trust no prognosticators. It is their purpose in life to lie and deceive, and so far, their predictions, though they often have had an inverse effect on the actual result, sometimes do follow the predicted outcome.
If the Democrats do regain control of the House, expect them to attempt to reverse virtually everything Trump has managed to do in the past 20 months or so, and to stymie any further progress altogether. Their motion to impeach will fail, but it shall so tie up the House that nothing else will be considered.
In a nutshell, that's why they are Democrats, and not Republicans.
(Poll methodology seems okay since it's not nubile coeds live-calling in the evening for minimum wage.)
One poll had the democrats up 16 ..I think it was fox
This is a left wing poll. But even straight up this is terrible for the dems. Here comes the Red Wave. Part of the MAGA Storm surge.
But the last poll said Democrats were ahead by 15!
Dem +8% poll sample. Means that Republicans polled about +5%. The dems are scared.!!!
The GOP will keep the House.
All the Democrat wailing and teeth-knashing is kabuki theater.
They are goi g to get crazier and more unhinged as they realize they will not take co trol. Expect more violence and false flags out of desperation. Election night will be almost as good as 2016.
God is in control . Everybody keep prayingas this is a battle against evil.

Most democrat Trump voters do not say they voted for him..

The question is will they vote for GOP house candidates
Poll: Dems lead GOP by 14 points on generic House ballot
Gosh, what happened to the previous polling which showed them at plus 9?
Good news.
For the life of me, I can’t imagine what the Democrats are selling that anyone would like to buy?
This poll was of “adults” so is even more worthless than most. How many in it’s sample are Illegals?
I’m more angry now than when jugears was president! And I love me some Trump!!
It’s the collective insanity of the leftists last two years that’s pissing me off to no end!
