Gallup poll on who you would vote for in your Congressional race.

Registered voters: Democrat leads 54-38, MOE of 4%
Regular voters: Democrat leads 55-38, MOE of 5%

The MOE is rather large, but if that 55-38 lead is true, then the gerrymandering won't save Republican control of the House.

However, many other polls are closer. The main reason this poll caught my attention is that it was of "regular" voters. There's still a good chance the fascists could retain the House.

The Senate is still pretty bleak.

They'll make gains in both House and the Senate, but I doubt they'll regain either. With the president's approval ratings on the rise, that'll help the GOP just enough to hold on to it.

Well, it's necessary. There needs to be reign on Republican excesses

Might be good if we had proportional representation. There will be, literally, no way to know who will hold the House until around midnight on November 8th.
