The Forecast:Democrats are still favored to win the House. But it's far from a sure thing.
CNN ^ | November 4, 2018 | Analysis by Harry Enten, CNN

GOP could still keep House majority 04:28

(CNN)House forecast: Democrats will win 226 seats (and the House majority) while Republicans will win just 209 seats. A Democratic win of 203 seats and 262 seats is within the margin of error.

Senate forecast: Republicans will hold 52 seats (and maintain control of the Senate) next Congress while Democrats will hold just 48. Anything between Republicans holding 48 seats and 56 seats is within the margin of error.
The final weekend of the long 2018 campaign is coming to a close.
Sometimes the final weekend brings clarity. This weekend brings no such thing. Instead, Democrats remain modest — though not runaway — favorites to gain House control.

The blue wave was not a thing, it is a wish. They never have and still don’t believe Trump is President. Nothing has been real to them for 2 years

I know they’ve been all over social media. Everyone you could think of has been pushing the get out the vote for dems. The push has been very strong. Let’s hope it motivates them to tweet a lot and nothing more.

You, too? I have taken off the day after Election Day since 2012. Glad I did in 2016. Stayed up on Free Republic until the wee hours, hoping to catch Shrillary admitting defeat. Would have been difficult to go to work on 2hrs sleep.

Gop will easily not just keep the house, but increase their majority.

I admire your optimism. That having been said, I’ll be happy if we win it by a single seat.

they’re screwed and they know it

I'm not so sure. I have a ring-side seat here in outstate Michigan and I've failed to see what I called "White Pickup Truck" voters in 2016; White 20-30 Aged Males driving white work trucks.

They all begged for Trump Yard Signs! Haven't seen one in 2018. I'm a volunteer at the county campaign HQ.

They probably saved them and are recycling them.

As I have posted many times....the American voters have been given a gift from God, it being a “Once-In-A-Lifetime-Opportunity to totally, defeat & destroy politically, the entire “Failed” Democrat Party and render it useless as a functioning, effective party of loyal opposition and effectiveness, for many years to come!!!

The Democrat Party of today has not one, not one effective powerful leader. They have resorted to dragging out ex-Failed, POTUS, Barack Hussein Obama as their “champion campaign leader”, forgetting that it was Obama that lost them over 1000 legislative seats while he was the POTUS!!! To say the least Obama has been far from being effective or competent as the “Leader-Of-The-Party with his unchecked rants & raves gone wild as they are addressed to small audiences of rally attendees!!!

Fact is: The predicted Massive Democrat Blue Wave is naught, but, a trickle of dripping water!!! Vote GOP, Support POTUS, Trump....across the board..period!!!

If R’s hold on to House, Leftist heads will explode. Always an amusing sight.

There will be plenty of excuses Wednesday on why the Dems lost. But the Dems will not blame themselves. Nor the media.

Yep. It will be so interesting to see how they handle losing yet again despite their best, over the top efforts.

Thanks mdittmar. IMHO the partisan media shills are trying to keep up the morale and motivation of their party rank and file, but they know that it's going to be a comprehensive repudiation by American voters. Arrrr! We is all deplorables now! Arrrr!
