    FULL TITLE: REVEALED: Democrats won control of the House of Representatives by the largest margin since the Watergate scandal Democrats won the popular vote in the House by the largest margins since the Watergate scandal and resignation of Republican President Richard Nixon. An analysis by NBC News reveals that Democrats stormed to victory over the Republicans in House races, by a whopping 8.6 million votes in this year's midterms. NBC reported that number is the largest margin that Democrats have defeated Republicans in a midterm House election since 1974. That midterm race, shortly after Nixon resigned, allowed Democrats to win...

    New York Post ^ | OCTOBER 20, 2018 | David M. Drucker
    Control of the House of Representatives is teetering on a razor’s edge, poised to fall to the Democrats on Nov. 6, but hardly a lost cause for the Republicans. Amid a blue tide of cash, grass-roots activism and voter enthusiasm, the Democrats only have to win 23 seats to erase the GOP’s 42-seat majority. Every single House seat in the country is facing an election.

    Could Republicans do the unthinkable on November 6th and keep a majority in the House? Politico’s Rachel Bade calls it “unlikely,” but not impossible. Bade hears from Republicans and “even a few Democrats” that the political winds have shifted enough this month that it might result in a slight GOP majority once all the votes have been counted. Just about every poll predicts it won’t happen: Suburban voters are too fed up with Donald Trump, and Democrats too awash in cash, for Nancy Pelosi’s party not to seize the House on Nov. 6. And yet House Republicans — and privately,...
  • A Shift in GOP Fortunes

    Cook Political ^ | October 19, 2018
    The most dramatic change over the last six weeks in the midterm election picture is clearly in the Senate, but the House situation has subtly changed as well. Not long ago, the most likely outcome for the Senate was either no net change at all, or a shift of one seat, so the Senate would remain under GOP control, with the majority holding 50-52 seats. Today, a Republican net gain of a seat or two seems most likely, moving the GOP up to either 52 or 53 seats, though a gain of three seats or no net change are entirely...

    ...“A race-by-race analysis of Democratic House targets shows the party is close to winning the majority, but they do not have it put away, in our judgment, with Election Day less than three weeks away,” said Kyle Kondik, managing editor of Sabato's Crystal Ball in his new post. ...the Democrats in a worst-case scenario could be four seats shy of the needed 23 needed to install Rep. Nancy Pelosi as speaker. Of course there are caveats, such as the impact of the huge influx of money to Democrats and President Trump’s decision to campaign furiously through Election Day, but the...
