It may be closer than wolf thinks.
But I voted in a very blue district, tonight after dark at a school, and the place was packed. First time I ever waited in line before. The other side was more motivated. I could smell it. They despise the President, without really knowing why.
NYT is showing:
HOUSE
161 Dems and 162 Reps
Dems gained 20 and Reps lost 20 currently
SENATE
42 Dems and 50 Reps
Dems lost 2 and Reps gained 2 currently
That would leave 8 undecided

The four people in line in front of me were all women, and women in the voting booths when I walked in easily outnumbered men 3-1. It was just a 10 minute snapshot of one polling place, and in a dark blue ocean of voters, but I still did my duty and hoped the rural areas of the state would make up for it...
